Functions and substrates of plastoglobule-localized metallopeptidase PGM48 [PDF]
Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2017 Plastoglobules (PGs) in chloroplasts are monolayer lipid-protein particles attached to thylakoids. The size and number of PGs per chloroplast respond dynamically to abiotic environmental stresses and developmental transitions. During senescence, the thylakoid membranes and its constituents are dismantled in controlled fashion. Leaf senescence coincides

Divergent regulation of zinc metallopeptidases by shear stress in macrovascular endothelial cells via an NADPH oxidase - superoxide pathway [PDF]
, 2012 Introduction: The hemodynamic environment of blood vessels is a crucial feature of endothelium-mediated vasoregulation. Flow-associated laminar shear stress (LSS) imparts an atheroprotective stimulus on the vascular endothelium, causing realignment of ...

Gallic acid regulates immune response in a mouse model of rheumatoid arthritis
Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, 2023 Introduction Previous studies revealed that gallic acid (GA) exerts anti‐inflammation and immuno‐regulatory properties. This study aims to explore the pharmacological activities of GA in collagen‐induced arthritis (CIA) mouse model.

Sequential Cleavage by Metallopeptidases and Proteasomes Is Involved in Processing HIV-1 ENV Epitope for Endogenous MHC Class I Antigen Presentation [PDF]
, 2000 Antigenic peptides derived from viral proteins by multiple proteolytic cleavages are bound by MHC class I molecules and recognized by CTL. Processing predominantly takes place in the cytosol of infected cells by the action of proteasomes.
