Undervalued ubiquitous proteins
4 open, 2019 The role of ubiquitous proteins (UPs) and their corresponding enzymes have been underestimated in carcinogenesis as the focus of much research revolved around measuring mutations and/or other genetic epiphenomena as surrogate markers of cancer and cancer

ESTEROLYTIC ACTIVITY OF ELASTASE [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1969 The esters of L-alanine were found to be excellent substrates for elastase. The pH-dependence study using two methyl esters of this substrate showed the participation in the mechanism of an ionizing group with an apparent pK of 6.85 and a decrease of the activity at pH's greater than 10 (that could correspond to an apparent pK of 11.4).

Antioxidant and Antiaging Potential of Salak Fruit Extract (Salacca zalacca (Gaert.)Voss)
Majalah Obat Tradisional, 2023 Natural skin aging is indicated by a loss of skin structure and integrity caused by external factors including UV exposure. This exposure causes oxidative stress on skin cells, initiates aging, and degradation of extracellular matrix (ECM) structure ...

A Spectrophotometric Method for Determination of Elastase and Serum Elastase Inhibitor.
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1962 SummaryA spectrophotometric method for determination of elastase and elastase-inhibitory activity has been presented, incorporating Sachar's method of enzymatic digestion of an elastin-orcein substrate with subsequent extraction of the orcein dye from solution with n-butyl alcohol.

Determination of Fungal Elastase [PDF]
Applied Microbiology, 1971 The elastin-agar plate is useful for determining elastolytic activity. Determination of fungal elastase, however, requires partial purification of culture extracts and the orcein elastin or gravimetric method.

How phagocytic cells kill bacteria: Lessons from a professional killer
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.How phagocytic cells ingest and kill bacteria has been studied for more than a century, but many questions remain unanswered. The study of the amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum brings new answers, and new questions. Professional phagocytic cells such as neutrophils and macrophages, as well as free‐living soil amoebae like Dictyostelium discoideum, employ
