Est10: A Novel Alkaline Esterase Isolated from Bovine Rumen Belonging to the New Family XV of Lipolytic Enzymes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 A metagenomic fosmid library from bovine rumen was used to identify clones with lipolytic activity. One positive clone was isolated. The gene responsible for the observed phenotype was identified by in vitro transposon mutagenesis and sequencing and was ...

Structural Analyses on the Deamidation of N-Terminal Asn in the Human N-Degron Pathway
Biomolecules, 2020 The N-degron pathway is a proteolytic system in which a single N-terminal amino acid acts as a determinant of protein degradation. Especially, degradation signaling of N-terminal asparagine (Nt-Asn) in eukaryotes is initiated from its deamidation by N ...
