INHIBITION AND ACTIVATION OF BARLEY PEPTIDE HYDROLASES I. PEPTIDE HYDROLASE A [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Institute of Brewing, 1971
Barley peptide hydrolase A acting on N-benzoyl-dl-arginine-p-nitroanilide as substrate is inhibited by the sulphydryl reagents N-ethyl maleimide and p-chloro-mercuriphenyl sulphonate. Oxidized glutathione, however, is non-inhibitory and several sulphydryl compounds are not stimulatory.

Microbial proteases and their applications

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Proteases (proteinases or peptidases) are a class of hydrolases that cleave peptide chains in proteins. Endopeptidases are a type of protease that hydrolyze the internal peptide bonds of proteins, forming shorter peptides; exopeptidases hydrolyze the ...

Specificity determinants of acylaminoacyl‐peptide hydrolase [PDF]

open access: yesProtein Science, 1992
AbstractIn an attempt to explore how specific features of the substrate's primary structure may affect the activity of rabbit muscle acylaminoacyl‐peptide hydrolase (EC 3.4.19.1), a number of acetylated peptides containing specific amino acid replacements in specific positions were prepared and compared as substrates for the hydrolase.

Several genes encoding enzymes with the same activity are necessary for aerobic fungal degradation of cellulose in nature. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The cellulose-degrading fungal enzymes are glycoside hydrolases of the GH families and lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases. The entanglement of glycoside hydrolase families and functions makes it difficult to predict the enzymatic activity of glycoside ...

Aminopeptidase C of Aspergillus niger is a Novel Phenylalanine Aminopeptidase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
A novel enzyme with a specific phenylalanine aminopeptidase activity (ApsC) from Aspergillus niger (CBS 120.49) has been characterized. The derived amino acid sequence is not similar to any previously characterized aminopeptidase sequence but does share ...

Gingival Crevicular Fluid Zinc- and Aspartyl-Binding Protease Profile of Individuals with Moderate/Severe Atopic Dermatitis

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a protease-modulated chronic disorder with heterogenous clinical manifestations which may lead to an imprecise diagnosis. To date, there are no diagnostic protease tests for AD.

A predator-prey interaction between a marine Pseudoalteromonas sp. and Gram-positive bacteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Predator-prey interactions play important roles in the cycling of marine organic matter. Here we show that a Gram-negative bacterium isolated from marine sediments (Pseudoalteromonas sp.
