Proteolysis in the rat lung: hypoxia and evidence for an inhibitor of proteolysis

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology-Endocrinology and Metabolism, 1981
We labeled proteins with [14C]phenylalanine in rats breathing air and assessed the rate of proteolysis in the isolated ventilated lung by measuring the accumulation of [14C]phenylalanine in the medium perfusing the lung. Ventilation with 0% O2 decreased the rate of proteolysis and the ATP content in the lung 60%.

Limited and digestive proteolysis: crosstalk between evolutionary conserved pathways

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2017
Proteases can either digest target proteins or perform the so-called 'limited proteolysis' by cleaving polypeptide chains at specific site(s). Autophagy and the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) are two main mechanisms carrying out digestive proteolysis.

Regulation of proteolysis

Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolic Care, 2001
The mechanisms of proteolysis remain to be fully defined. This review focuses on recent advances in our understanding of the ubiquitin-proteasome-dependent pathway, which is involved in the control of many major biological functions. The ubiquitinylation/deubiquitinylation system is a complex machinery responsible for the specific tagging and proof ...

Proteolysis of Tropoelastin

1977
The presence of an enzyme associated with tropoelastin is described. The enzyme has a pH optimum between 7 and 9 and trypsin-like specificity. Upon incubation, tropoelastin (72,000 molecular weight) is cleaved into relatively high molecular weight fragments. In addition to the parent molecule, five discrete polypeptide bands are usually observed on SDS

Intracellular proteolysis

Trends in Genetics, 1999
Our present understanding of intracellular protein degradation developed from an attempt to understand the metabolic stability of proteins in cells. With the unravelling of its complex biochemical machinery has come a realization that protein degradation plays an important role in the most crucial events in the cell cycle, in signal transduction and in

Proteolysis as a Regulatory Mechanism

Annual Review of Genetics, 2004
▪ Abstract  Proteases can play key roles in regulation by controlling the levels of critical components of, for example, signal transduction pathways. Proteolytic processing can remove regulatory proteins when they are not needed, while transforming others from the dormant into the biologically active state.

Intramembrane proteolysis by presenilins

Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, 2000
Many neurodegenerative diseases involve the deposition of insoluble amyloid molecules. In Alzheimer's disease, for example, the amyloid beta-peptide (A beta) is the main component of the characteristic senile plaques. Proteolytic enzymes called secretases are involved in generating A beta, and one of these may have been identified as presenilin--a ...

The course of proteolysis of lysozyme

Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1956
Abstract The course of proteolysis of lysozyme by chymotrypsin, trypsin, papain at three pH's, and pepsin is reported with tabulation of progressive exposure of 15 N-residue types and 12 C-residue types. A marked similarity in pattern of hydrolysis has been observed.

Proteolysis of tau by calpain

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1989
The calpain-induced proteolysis of tau associated with twice-cycled microtubules or from a total brain heat-stable fraction was studied. Twice-cycled microtubule tau was rapidly hydrolyzed by calpain. In contrast, tau purified from the total brain heat-stable fraction was very resistant to degradation by calpain.

Proteolysis of Bovine Immunoglobulins

International Archives of Allergy and Applied Immunology, 2009
Bovine serum IgG1, colostral IgG1 and serum IgG2 with anti-ferritin activity were digested with pepsin or trypsin. Their fragments were characterized by immunoelectrophoresis, gel electrophoresis and gel filtration; their ferritin-binding ability was determined.
