Copper isotope composition of hemocyanin

open access: yesJournal of Trace Elements in Medicine and Biology, 2022
Copper is a metal that plays a central role in biology, for example, as co-factor in various redox enzymes. Its stable isotopic composition is being used as tracer of its transport in living organisms and as a biomarker for diseases affecting its homeostasis.

Prediction and characterization of a novel hemocyanin-derived antimicrobial peptide from shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei

open access: yesAmino Acids, 2018
Hemocyanin, the multifunctional glycoprotein in the hemolymph of invertebrates, can generate various antimicrobial peptides (AMPs). Given the rising interest in the use of natural therapeutic agents such as AMPs, alternative and more efficient methods ...

Molluscan mega-hemocyanin: an ancient oxygen carrier tuned by a ~550 kDa polypeptide

open access: yesFrontiers in Zoology, 2010
Background The allosteric respiratory protein hemocyanin occurs in gastropods as tubular di-, tri- and multimers of a 35 × 18 nm, ring-like decamer with a collar complex at one opening. The decamer comprises five subunit dimers.

Programmable Antigen‐Specific Immunity via Self‐Adjuvanting Nanovaccines Co‐Delivering Immune Modulators

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 11, 9 March 2026.
The self‐adjuvanting vaccine—comprising a covalent conjugate of antigen and adjuvant—was formulated into cationic lipid nanoparticles smaller than 100 nm to facilitate uptake by immune cells, with supplemental adjuvants incorporated to modulate immune responses.

Hemocyanin‐derived phenoloxidase reaction products display anti‐infective properties

open access: yesDevelopmental and Comparative Immunology, 2018
Hemocyanin is a multi‐functional protein located in the hemolymph (blood) of certain arthropods and molluscs. In addition to its well‐defined role in oxygen transport, hemocyanin can be converted into a phenoloxidase‐like enzyme.
