Chilo iridescent virus encodes two functional metalloproteases [PDF]
The genome of Chilo iridescent virus (CIV) has two open reading frames (ORFs) with matrix metalloprotease (MMP) domains. The protein encoded by ORF 136R contains 178 amino acids with over 40% amino acid sequence identity to hypothetical metalloproteases ...

Targeting ADAM10 in Cancer and Autoimmunity
Generating inhibitors for ADisintegrin And Metalloproteinase 10 (ADAM10), a zinc-dependent protease, was heavily invested in by the pharmaceutical industry starting over 20 years ago. There has been much enthusiasm in basic research for these inhibitors,

Two poles of the anti-inflammatory action of azithromycin
A breakthrough in the treatment of infectious diseases occurred with the advent of the era of antibiotics. Epidemiological studies on intracellular pathogens such as mycoplasmas, chlamydia, campylobacter and legionella in the 20th century served as an ...
