Peptide hydrolases of the brush border membrane from human small intestine [PDF]
A method has been developed for the purification of brush border membranes from human small intestine. The method did not involve the use of EDTA-buffers or disruption of brush borders with high concentrations of Tris.

Mining microbial genomes for new natural products and biosynthetic pathways [PDF]
Analyses of microbial genome sequences have revealed numerous examples of ‘cryptic’ or ‘orphan’ biosynthetic gene clusters, with the potential to direct the production of novel, structurally complex natural products.

Peptide Hydrolases of Propionibacteria: Effect of pH and Temperature
A comparative study of the activity of peptidases belonging to the four classic propionibacteria species cultured in milk was carried out at different values of pH and temperature. Leucine aminopeptidase and proline iminopeptidase showed greater activity in Propionibacterium freudenreichii than in the other species studied. With the single exception of

Studies on the specificity of acetylaminoacylpeptide hydrolase [PDF]
AbstractIn a continuing attempt to explore the types of specificity determinants that may affect protein‐protein (peptide) interactions, a number of short (2‐5 residues) acetylated peptides have been compared as substrates for the enzyme acetylaminoacyl‐peptide hydrolase (EC 3.4.19.1).

Unveiling Lactylation: A Novel Frontier in Cancer Stemness and Therapy
Tumor metabolism and epigenetic regulation are intrinsically linked. This review highlights lactylation as a pivotal bridge connecting these processes, acting as an active epigenetic effector in cancer stemness. We delineate how lactylation orchestrates the cancer stem cell landscape and evaluate its regulatory networks.

Coupling biosynthetic noncanonical amino acid production with genetic code expansion enables site‐specific incorporation of azatryptophans into PET‐degrading enzymes (PETases). By isosteric single‐atom editing of a conserved tryptophan, AzaPETases break the activity–stability trade‐off, delivering higher catalytic efficiency at elevated temperature and

Kinetics of peptide hydrolase activity in crude wheat leaf extracts [PDF]
The protein present in crude wheat leaf extracts causes serious deviations from simple Michaelis-Menten kinetics for soluble peptide hydrolases. A theoretical analysis indicated that the usual approach, of adjusting activities observed at various ...

Isolation and Characterisation of Peptide Hydrolases from the Maize Root [PDF]
The maize root has two main proteinase and carboxypeptidase components. Proteinase I and carboxypeptidase I, which predominate in older plants, appear to have a serine group at their active sites and have been estimated to have molecular weights of approximately 54000 and 77000 respectively.
