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.

Molecular basis for the production of cyclic peptides by plant asparaginyl endopeptidases
Nature Communications, 2018 Asparaginyl endopeptidases (AEPs) are plant proteases that can also function as ligases, catalyzing the production of cyclic plant peptides. Here, the authors identify structural features that govern AEP ligase activity, providing insights to aid the ...

Cells, 2019 In preparation for division, bacteria replicate their DNA and segregate the newly formed chromosomes. A division septum then assembles between the chromosomes, and the mother cell splits into two identical daughters due to septum degradation.

The astacin metalloprotease moulting enzyme NAS-36 is required for normal cuticle ecdysis in free-living and parasitic nematodes [PDF]
, 2011 Nematodes represent one of the most abundant and species-rich groups of animals on the planet, with parasitic species causing chronic, debilitating infections in both livestock and humans worldwide. The prevalence and success of the nematodes is a direct

Substrate specificity and structural investigation into PepO and PepW : two peptidases from Lactobacillus rhamnosus : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Biochemistry at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2005 The proteolytic systems of lactic acid bacteria have important roles in the maturation and flavour development of cheese. Lactic acid bacteria pepetidases contribute to the taste of cheese through the production of low-molecular weight peptides and free ...

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.KLK7, a tissue kallikrein‐related peptidase, is elevated in advanced colorectal cancer and associated with shorter survival. High KLK7 levels in ascites correlate with peritoneal metastasis. In mice, KLK7 overexpression increases metastasis. In vitro, KLK7 enhances cancer cell proliferation, migration, adhesion, and spheroid formation, driving ...
