Localization and Dynamics of the Cell Shape-Determining Csd2 Protein Complex in H. pylori [PDF]
CellsApproximately half of the world population is infected with the human pathogen Helicobacter pylori, which causes gastric inflammation, chronic gastritis, or peptide ulceration. A significant factor in the colonization of the upper digestive system is the

Endopeptidases of Triticale Seeds
Biologia Plantarum, 2001 <p>The changes in endopeptidase activity in different parts of germinating triticale cv. Malno were investigated. Haemoglobin, gliadin, azocasein and azoalbumin were used as substrates. During the first day of germination the activity of haemoglobin hydrolyzing endopeptidases predominated while after the second day, mainly in the ...

Characterization of endopeptidases from the midgut of Morimus funereus (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) larvae [PDF]
Archives of Biological Sciences, 2008 Application of specific chromogenic substrates, use of class-specific inhibitors, and zymogram analysis enabled us to identify several peptidase classes in extracts of the midgut of Morimus funereus larvae.

Control of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa LbcA•CtpA proteolytic complex and its substrates [PDF]
Journal of BacteriologyPseudomonas aeruginosa is a highly adaptable bacterial pathogen with a resilient cell envelope. This envelope must be elongated as cells grow, which requires coordinated biosynthesis of the inner and outer membranes and the peptidoglycan cell wall.

Distinct and Specific Role of NlpC/P60 Endopeptidases LytA and LytB in Cell Elongation and Division of Lactobacillus plantarum [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019 Peptidoglycan (PG) is an essential lattice of the bacterial cell wall that needs to be continuously remodeled to allow growth. This task is ensured by the concerted action of PG synthases that insert new material in the pre-existing structure and PG ...

Cell Wall Endopeptidases in Pseudomonas Aeruginosa
, 2020 The bacterial cell wall is essential for viability, and thus represents an attractive target for antibiotic therapy. Although beta-lactams and certain other antibiotics target enzymes involved in cell wall synthesis, pathogens are rapidly becoming ...
