Bioactive Peptides in Meat and Meat Products

Meat and Muscle Biology, 2023
A number of bioactive peptides with health benefits have been reported to be generated in meat through the proteolysis phenomena taking place during postmortem aging or further processing. Bioactive peptides consist of short sequences, less than 20 amino

Electrochemical Sensor to Detect Proteinuria Using Peptidases and Glutamate Oxidase Jointly Immobilized on a Prussian Blue-modified Electrode

Electrochemistry, 2021
In this work, we report a simple electrochemical sensor that detects proteinuria upon immersion into a sample. We immobilized peptidases in conjunction with glutamate oxidase (GluOx) on a Prussian blue-modified glassy carbon (PB-GC) electrode.

A Novel Gelatinase from Marine Flocculibacter collagenilyticus SM1988: Characterization and Potential Application in Collagen Oligopeptide-Rich Hydrolysate Preparation

Marine Drugs, 2022
Although the S8 family in the MEROPS database contains many peptidases, only a few S8 peptidases have been applied in the preparation of bioactive oligopeptides.

OPTIMISATION OF Bacillus amyloliquefaciens FE-K1 EXTRACELLULAR PEPTIDASE PRODUCTION BY RESPONSE SURFACE METHODOLOGY

Trakya University Journal of Natural Sciences, 2018
In this study, it was aimed to optimise the extracellular peptidase production of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens FE-K1, previously isolated from ropy wholemeal bread, by using response surface methodology (RSM) based on central composite design (CCD).

Mechanisms of HIV Protein Degradation into Epitopes: Implications for Vaccine Design

Viruses, 2014
The degradation of HIV-derived proteins into epitopes displayed by MHC-I or MHC-II are the first events leading to the priming of HIV-specific immune responses and to the recognition of infected cells.

Evolution and Role of Proteases in Campylobacter jejuni Lifestyle and Pathogenesis

Biomolecules, 2023
Infection with the main human food-borne pathogen Campylobacter jejuni causes campylobacteriosis that accounts for a substantial percentage of gastrointestinal infections. The disease usually manifests as diarrhea that lasts for up to two weeks.

Genome Wide Mapping of Peptidases in Rhodnius prolixus: Identification of Protease Gene Duplications, Horizontally Transferred Proteases and Analysis of Peptidase A1 Structures, with Considerations on Their Role in the Evolution of Hematophagy in Triatominae

Frontiers in Physiology, 2017
Triatominae is a subfamily of the order Hemiptera whose species are able to feed in the vertebrate blood (i.e., hematophagy). This feeding behavior presents a great physiological challenge to insects, especially in Hemipteran species with a digestion ...

Small secreted proteins enable biofilm development in the cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus. [PDF]

, 2016
Small proteins characterized by a double-glycine (GG) secretion motif, typical of secreted bacterial antibiotics, are encoded by the genomes of diverse cyanobacteria, but their functions have not been investigated to date.

New families of carboxyl peptidases: serine-carboxyl peptidases and glutamic peptidases [PDF]

Journal of Biochemistry, 2011
Peptidases or proteinases are now classified into seven families based on the nature of the catalytic residues [MEROPS-the peptidase database (http://merops.sanger.ac.uk/)]. They are aspartic- (first described in 1993), cysteine- (1993), serine- (1993) metallo- (1993), threonine- (1997), glutamic- (2004) and asparagine-peptidase (2010).
