Comparative analysis of cystatin superfamily in platyhelminths. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The cystatin superfamily is comprised of cysteine proteinase inhibitors and encompasses at least 3 subfamilies: stefins, cystatins and kininogens. In this study, the platyhelminth cystatin superfamily was identified and grouped into stefin and cystatin ...

Purification and structure of novel cysteine proteinase inhibitors staccopins P1 and P2, from Staphylococcus tanabeensis

open access: yes, 1987
A new type of cysteine proteinase inhibitors, staccopin PI and P2, are low molecular weight (lower than 1,000) peptide derivatives isolated first from Staphylococcus sp. Staccopins strongly inhibited only cysteine proteinases like calpain and papain, but

Dataset of cathepsin L-like CP inhibition of Naegleria fowleri and Acanthamoeba castellanii by ppTvCP4r from Trichomonas vaginalis

open access: yesData in Brief, 2018
The recombinant TvCP4 prepro region (ppTvCP4r) acts as an exogenous inhibitor of cathepsin L-like CPs from Trichomonas vaginalis (Cárdenas-Guerra et al., 2015 [1]). Here, we present the dataset of the trichomonad ppTvCP4r inhibitory effect against the CP

ANISERP: a new serpin from the parasite Anisakis simplex

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2015
Background Serine proteinase inhibitors (serpins) finely regulate serine proteinase activity via a suicide substrate-like inhibitory mechanism. In parasitic nematodes, some serpins interact with host physiological processes; however, little is known ...

SNPs near the cysteine proteinase cathepsin O gene (CTSO) determine tamoxifen sensitivity in ERα-positive breast cancer through regulation of BRCA1.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2017
Tamoxifen is one of the most commonly employed endocrine therapies for patients with estrogen receptor α (ERα)-positive breast cancer. Unfortunately the clinical benefit is limited due to intrinsic and acquired drug resistance.
