The PDZ domain of the SpoIVB serine peptidase facilitates multiple functions [PDF]

, 2001
During spore formation in Bacillus subtilis, the SpoIVB protein is a critical component of the sigma (K) regulatory checkpoint. SpoIVB has been shown to be a serine peptidase that is synthesized in the spore chamber and which self-cleaves, releasing ...

Mitochondrial processing peptidases

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2002
Three peptidases are responsible for the proteolytic processing of both nuclearly and mitochondrially encoded precursor polypeptides targeted to the various subcompartments of the mitochondria. Mitochondrial processing peptidase (MPP) cleaves the vast majority of mitochondrial proteins, while inner membrane peptidase (IMP) and mitochondrial ...

Peptide metabolism in the lactococci and its regulation : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Biochemistry at Massey University [PDF]

, 1994
Aspects of peptide metabolism in the lactococci have been investigated to increase the understanding of how these nutritionally fastidious bacteria, which have a central role in the dairy manufacturing industry, are able to grow in a complex medium such ...

Protein translocation across mitochondrial membranes [PDF]

, 1992
Protein translocation across biological membranes is of fundamental importance for the biogenesis of organelles and in protein secretion. We will give an overview of the recent achievements in the understanding of protein translocation across ...

Characterization of the mitochondrial processing peptidase of Neurospora crassa [PDF]

, 1994
The mitochondrial processing peptidase (MPP) of Neurospora crassa is constituted by an alpha- and a beta-subunit. We have purified alpha-MPP after expression in Escherichia coli while beta-MPP was purified from mitochondria.

Targeting of the hepatitis B virus precore protein to the endoplasmic reticulum membrane: after signal peptide cleavage translocation can be aborted and the product released into the cytoplasm. [PDF]

, 1988
The major hepatitis B virus (HBV) core protein is a viral structural protein involved in nucleic acid binding. Its coding sequence contains an extension of 29 codons (the "precore" region) at the amino terminus of the protein which is present in a ...

Great Increase in Antinociceptive Potency of [Leu5]Enkephalin After Peptidase Inhibition

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2008
Previous in vitro studies have shown that the degradation of [Leu5]enkephalin during incubation with cerebral membrane preparations is almost completely prevented by a mixture of three peptidase inhibitors: amastatin, captopril, and phosphoramidon.
