What’s the importance of peptidases in cancer? [PDF]
A synonym for a successful tumor spread is a productive invasive cell migration, a process by which the extracellular matrix plays the role of substrate for cells to move and reach a secondary site.

P. aeruginosa CtpA protease adopts a novel activation mechanism to initiate the proteolytic process
During bacterial cell growth, hydrolases cleave peptide cross-links between strands of the peptidoglycan sacculus to allow new strand insertion.

Following a structure‐based design approach, photoswitchable derivatives of the FDA‐approved drug suvorexant were designed, docked, synthesized, and characterized pharmacologically at the orexin 1 and 2 receptors (OX1R and OX2R). Optimized “photorexant” showed up to an 11‐fold difference in IC50 between photoisomers, enabled dynamic and reversible ...

Enzimas proteolíticas relacionadas con la enfermedad periodontal inflamatoria
La enfermedad periodontal inflamatoria ocasiona la destrucción de los tejidos que protegen y soportan al diente; es por eso de gran importancia el papel que pueden desempeñar las enzimas que sean capaces de degradar la matriz del tejido conectivo, como ...

Optimization-Based Peptide Mass Fingerprinting for Protein Mixture Identification [PDF]
*Motivation:* In current proteome research, peptide sequencing is probably the most widely used method for protein mixture identification. However, this peptide-centric method has its own disadvantages such as the immense volume of tandem Mass ...
