Acid Angiotensinase as a Lysosomal Enzyme
1. Both acid angiotensinase and calcium-dependent neutral angiotensinase are widely distributed among various tissues of the rat. High activity of acid angiotensinase in such lysosome-rich tissues as kidney, spleen and liver suggests localization of this enzyme in lysosomes. 2. Main angiotensinases in rat liver are concentrated in lysosomal and soluble

Papain-like peptidases: structure, function, and evolution
Papain-like cysteine peptidases are a diverse family of peptidases found in most known organisms. In eukaryotes, they are divided into multiple evolutionary groups, which can be clearly distinguished on the basis of the structural characteristics of the ...

High lumenal chloride in the lysosome is critical for lysosome function
Lysosomes are organelles responsible for the breakdown and recycling of cellular machinery. Dysfunctional lysosomes give rise to lysosomal storage disorders as well as common neurodegenerative diseases.

Structural insights into mechanisms underlying stabilization of a lysosomal enzyme through protein engineering [PDF]
Enzyme replacement therapies (ERTs) have been approved as treatments for several lysosomal storage disorders, which are characterized by deficiency of a single lysosomal enzyme leading to progressive substrate accumulation, perturbing lysosomal function ...

Activities of Proteolytic Lysosomal Enzymes in Blood and Liver of Growing Cattle
. The activities of proteolytic lysosomal enzymes were investigated in serum, leucocytes, liver and muscle of German-Holstein heifers. Altogether there were 119 investigations: 19 9 months, 80 12 months and 20 16 months old female young cattle. Lysosomal

ENZYMES OF LYSOSOMAL ORIGIN IN PLASMA OF TWIN NEONATES
The levels of some enzymes of lysosomal origin were assayed during days 2 and 5 of life in plasmas from 11 sets of twin neonates and from 25 neonates from single pregnancies (13 of weight appropriate for gestational age and 12 small for their gestational
