Urinary aminopeptidase activities as early and predictive biomarkers of renal dysfunction in cisplatin-treated rats. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 This study analyzes the fluorimetric determination of alanyl- (Ala), glutamyl- (Glu), leucyl-cystinyl- (Cys) and aspartyl-aminopeptidase (AspAp) urinary enzymatic activities as early and predictive biomarkers of renal dysfunction in cisplatin-treated ...

Cloning, purification and preliminary crystallographic analysis of the Helicobacter pylori leucyl aminopeptidase-bestatin complex. [PDF]
Acta Crystallogr Sect F Struct Biol Cryst Commun, 2013 Helicobacter pylori is an important human pathogenic bacterium associated with numerous severe gastroduodenal diseases, including ulcers and gastric cancer. Cytosolic leucyl aminopeptidase (LAP) is an important housekeeping protein that is involved in peptide and protein turnover, catabolism of proteins and modulation of gene expression.

Study on endogenous protease and protein degradation of dry-salted Decapterus maruadsi
CyTA - Journal of Food, 2018 Extensive proteolysis and formation of flavor substances occur during the processing of dry-salted fish due to the action of endogenous proteases. This study analyzed the evolution of the endogenous proteases and the relationship between endogenous ...
