Abstract Background and Purpose Orexins have important biological effects on the central and peripheral nervous systems. Their primary ability is to regulate the sleep–wake cycle. Orexins and their antagonists, via OX1 receptor have been shown to have proapoptotic and antitumor effects on various digestive cancers cell models.

Bacterial volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) are biological volatiles that can have a positive effect on the postharvest preservation of fruits and vegetables. In the present study, fumigation of broccoli with BVOCs released by Lysinibacillus fusiformis supplemented with LED white light irradiation reduced the accumulation of reactive oxygen species ...

A study of aminopeptidases from lactic streptococci : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Biochemistry at Massey University [PDF]
Two arninopeptidase enzymes from the proteolytic system of Streptococcus lactis 4760 have been studied. An X-Prolyl dipeptidyl arninopeptidase has been purified and characterised.

The role of the picoeukaryote Aureococcus anophagefferens in cycling of marine high molecular weight dissolved organic nitrogen [PDF]
Environmental evidence suggests that Aureococcus anophagefferens (Pelagophyceae), a eukaryotic picoplankton that blooms in coastal seawaters, can outcompete other organisms because of its ability to use abundant dissolved organic nitrogen (DON).

Aminopeptidases as a type of exopeptidase can hydrolyze peptide bonds at the N‐terminus of polypeptide and protein, serving as various key roles in the physiological and pathological processes. In this review, diverse representative examples of recent works about activatable aminopeptidase probes are summarized including sensing, imaging, and therapy ...

A Plasmodium falciparum S33 proline aminopeptidase is associated with changes in erythrocyte deformability [PDF]
Infection with the apicomplexan parasite Plasmodium falciparum is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. One of the Striking features of this parasite is its ability to remodel and decrease the deformability of host red blood cells, a ...
