Development of an Assay to Distinguish Between Genotypes of the Leucyl-Cystinyl Aminopeptidase Gene
Introduction: The leucyl-cystinyl aminopeptidase gene rs4869317 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) is associated with multiple conditions; for example, patients with the rs4869317 TT genotype experiencing septic shock have increased plasma clearance of vasopressin versus AA or AT genotypes.

Leucyl/Cystinyl Aminopeptidase Gene Variants in Septic Shock
Chest, 2011Vasopressin is an essential peptide hormone regulating cardiovascular homeostasis and an adjunctive vasopressor therapy for septic shock.We tested for association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in vasopressin pathway genes and altered outcome in derivation (n = 589) and replication (n = 616) cohorts of patients with septic shock.

The leucyl aminopeptidase from Helicobacter pylori is an allosteric enzyme
Microbiology, 2005This study describes the cloning, genetic analysis and biochemical characterization of a leucyl aminopeptidase (LAP) fromHelicobacter pylori. A gene encoding LAP was cloned fromH. pyloriand the expressed 55 kDa protein displayed homology to aminopeptidases from Gram-negative bacteria, plants and mammals.

Biophysical characterization of a recombinant leucyl aminopeptidase from Bacillus kaustophilus
Biochemistry (Moscow), 2010The biophysical properties of Bacillus kaustophilus leucyl aminopeptidase (BkLAP) were examined in terms of analytical ultracentrifugation, fluorescence spectroscopy, and circular dichroism. By using the analytical ultracentrifuge, we demonstrated that tetrameric BkLAP exists as the major form in solution at protein concentration of 1.5 mg/ml at pH 8.0.

Plasmodium falciparum leucyl aminopeptidase (PfA-M17) regulates the intracellular pool of amino acids required for the growth and development of parasites. Thus, PfA-M17 is a promising target for anti-malarial drug development.In the present study, structure-based drug design was used to identify novel PfA-M17 inhibitors, which were subsequently ...

Sixty experimental Jinhua hams were processed by a traditional method. The potential arginyl (RAP) and leucyl (LAP) aminopeptidase activities in biceps femoris were determined. The effects of temperature, salt content, sodium nitrate content and pH value on muscle RAP and LAP activities were evaluated using response surface methodology.

AbstractVarious methods for the isolation of periplasm were examined and compared with regard to the complete release of known periplasmic marker enzymes and the contamination of the periplasm by cytosol for Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 as a significant Gram‐negative test strain.

AbstractWe previously reported that mouse orthologue of puromycin insensitive leucyl‐specific aminopeptidase (mPILSAP) played an important role in angiogenesis by regulating the proliferation and migration of endothelial cells (ECs) (Miyashita et al., 2002. Blood 99:3241–3249).

Neuropeptides, 1991
In order to obtain a greater understanding of the role of aminopeptidases in the degradation of peptides and proteins in the nervous system, we have isolated and characterized leucyl aminopeptidase (EC 3.4.11.1) from human cerebral cortex and studied its action on some physiologically important neuropeptides.
