Functionally impaired isoforms regulate TMPRSS6 proteolytic activity. [PDF]
TMPRSS6 is a type II transmembrane serine protease involved in iron homeostasis expressed as 4 isoforms in humans. TMPRSS6 isoform 2 downregulates hepcidin production by cleaving hemojuvelin and other surface proteins of hepatocytes.

Polymerised mite allergoids with glutaraldehyde reduce proteolytic activity and enhance the stability of allergen mixtures: a proof of concept with grass mixtures [PDF]
BackgroundPolysensitized patients require allergen immunotherapy (AIT) targeting multiple allergens. However, combining allergen extracts can lead to instability and reduced efficacy particularly due to the high proteolytic activity of house dust mite ...

Technological Potential of Lactic Acid Bacteria Isolated from Portuguese Goat’s Raw Milk Cheeses
In this work, a total of 97 MRS-grown and 135 M17-grown lactic acid bacteria strains were isolated from 20 goat’s raw milk cheeses, and their antimicrobial, acidifying, and proteolytic activities were determined in vitro.

Sedimentation, proteolytic activity and proteolysis of whole UHT milk during storage
The UHT milk destabilization during storage may be assigned, among other factors, to the activity of endogenous and, or bacterial proteases. This technological problem is a major obstacle in the dairy chain.
