Design of a Novel Peptide with Esterolytic Activity toward PET by Mimicking the Catalytic Motif of Serine Hydrolases

open access: yes
Serine hydrolases have become increasingly important for recycling PET plastics. However, their properties are inherently constrained by their 3D structure, which in turn limits the conditions for their application.

Natriuretic peptide receptors on rat thymocytes: Inhibition of proliferation by atrial natriuretic peptide. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Because the thymus expresses the natriuretic peptides (NP) as well as their respective receptors, an involvement of NP in the physiology of this organ has been suggested.

Cloning of Synthetic Lipase Gene from Rhizomucor miehei with Original Signal Peptide in Pichia pastoris

open access: yesMicrobiology Indonesia, 2017
Lipases (EC 3.1.1.3) are classified as hydrolases that hydrolyze lipids. These enzymes have potential application in biotechnology and industrial process. In previous study we have cloned the synthetic Rhizomucor miehei lipase gene using the vector pUC57

Proteolysis sensitizes LDL particles to phospholipolysis by secretory phospholipase A2 group V and secretory sphingomyelinase

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2010
LDL particles that enter the arterial intima become exposed to proteolytic and lipolytic modifications. The extracellular hydrolases potentially involved in LDL modification include proteolytic enzymes, such as chymase, cathepsin S, and plasmin, and ...

Biokatalysatoren für die Geranylierung von Peptiden mit Linearen und Zyklischen Prenylgruppen

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A combination of genome mining, synthetic biology, and biocatalytic assays revealed enzymes that install linear and cyclized prenyl moieties on ribosomally or chemically synthesized peptides. The promiscuity of both enzymes, while being specific for modification of C‐terminal tryptophans, enables enzymatic access to peptide terpenoid hybrids ...

Transcription of brain natriuretic peptide and atrial natriuretic peptide genes in human tissues [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
We have compared the expression of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) genes in various human tissues using a quantitative polymerase chain reaction technique.

Alloreactive cytotoxic T lymphocytes generated in the presence of viral- derived peptides show exquisite peptide and MHC specificity [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The nature of alloreactivity to MHC molecules has been enigmatic, primarily because of the observation that allogeneic responses are considerably stronger than syngeneic responses. To better determine the specificity potential of allogeneic responses, we
