Redox-Mediated Post-Translational Modifications of Proteolytic Enzymes and Their Role in Protease Functioning [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2020 Proteolytic enzymes play a crucial role in metabolic processes, providing the cell with amino acids through the hydrolysis of multiple endogenous and exogenous proteins. In addition to this function, proteases are involved in numerous protein cascades to

Research Applications of Proteolytic Enzymes in Molecular Biology [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2013 Proteolytic enzymes (also termed peptidases, proteases and proteinases) are capable of hydrolyzing peptide bonds in proteins. They can be found in all living organisms, from viruses to animals and humans.

Lysozyme Modification Using Proteolytic Enzymes [PDF]
Molecules, 2023 The lysozyme in the chicken egg white consists of various bioactive amino acids. However, these compounds are inactive when they are in the sequence of parent proteins. They become active only when isolated from these proteins.

Mechanisms of Proteolytic Enzymes and Their Inhibition in QM/MM Studies. [PDF]
Int J Mol Sci, 2021 Experimental evidence for enzymatic mechanisms is often scarce, and in many cases inadvertently biased by the employed methods. Thus, apparently contradictory model mechanisms can result in decade long discussions about the correct interpretation of data

Pancreatic Proteolytic Enzymes and Cancer: New Support for an Old Theory [PDF]
Integrative Cancer Therapies, 2022 In 1905, the embryologist John Beard first proposed that pancreatic proteolytic enzymes had potential as a treatment for cancer. His theories were dismissed by the medical world a decade later, but various practitioners have kept the concept alive ...

The MEROPS database of proteolytic enzymes, their substrates and inhibitors in 2017 and a comparison with peptidases in the PANTHER database. [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Res, 2018 The MEROPS database (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/merops/) is an integrated source of information about peptidases, their substrates and inhibitors. The hierarchical classification is: protein-species, family, clan, with an identifier at each level.

Proteolytic enzyme systems [PDF]
, 1993 Sepsis has traditionally been defined as a systemic inflammatory reaction of the organism to gramnegative bacterial leading to septic shock and even tually to (septic) multi-organ failure. Interestingly, it has become evident that the final common pathways of multi-organ failure initiated by trauma or by infection are very similar involving basically ...
