Periplasmic Proteases and Protease Inhibitors
2014In general, proteases are involved in diverse functions; the most notable include digestive, protective, and regulatory processes. Digestive proteases are involved in protein degradation for nutritional purposes. About 35% of all entries in the MEROPS database are classified as serine proteases.

West Nile virus (WNV), Zika virus (ZIKV), and Dengue virus (DENV) are vector-borne diseases endemic in tropical and subtropical countries around the world. Their incidence has been growing in recent years and they are becoming increasingly relevant even in non-endemic areas, representing a significant public health problem worldwide.

Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 2004
Over the past 20 years, the development of subtilisins as typical detergent proteases has employed all the tools of enzyme technology, resulting in a constant flow of new and improved enzymes. The number of molecules identified and characterized, however, is in clear opposition to the number of molecules that are entering the market.

Scandinavian Journal of Clinical and Laboratory Investigation, 1992
The Aspartic proteases (EC 3.4.23) are a group of proteolytic enzymes that share the same catalytic apparatus. Members of the aspartic protease family can be found in different organisms, ranging from humans to plants and retroviruses. The best known sources of aspartic proteases are the stomach of mammals, yeast and fungi, with porcine pepsin as the ...

Experientia, 1996
The interleukin-1 beta-converting enzyme (ICE)-like family proteases have recently been identified as key enzymes in apoptotic cell death. Among these proteases one can identify specific activities which may be involved in cytokine production or in resident protein cleavage. Several factors influence the constitutive apoptotic mechanism and may provide

Parasitology Today, 1988
While studies of schistosome antigens have proceeded rapidly over the past ten years, studies of schistosome enzymes have also been increasing apace. Now the two `lines' of research are coming together. Parasites such as schistosomes hardly present antigens merely to stimulate a host immune response, so it is not surprising that many antigens turn out ...

Essays in Biochemistry, 2002
A protease can be defined as an enzyme that hydrolyses peptide bonds. Proteases can be divided into endopeptidases, which cleave internal peptide bonds in substrates, and exopeptidases, which cleave the terminal peptide bonds. Exopeptidases can be further subdivided into aminopeptidases and carboxypeptidases.

Proteases and Protease Inhibitors in Neoplasia
1974Although proteases in tumours have been studied for many years [1], their role is far from clear. From a number of comparative studies (summarized in Table 1), however, it can be safely concluded that increased proteolytic activity is often associated with tumours.
