Functional role of glutamine 28 and arginine 39 in double stranded RNA cleavage by human pancreatic ribonuclease. [PDF]
Human pancreatic ribonuclease (HPR), a member of RNase A superfamily, has a high activity on double stranded (ds) RNA. By virtue of this activity HPR appears to be involved in the host-defense against pathogenic viruses.

Clinical Significance of LINC00261 in the Pathogenesis of Pancreatic, Colorectal, Hepatocellular, and Gallbladder Cancer [PDF]
Pancreatic (PC), colorectal (CRC), hepatocellular (HCC), and gallbladder (GC) cancers together account for nearly 20% of all cancer cases. However, specific biomarkers and therapeutic targets for these cancers are lacking.

Ribonucleases as potential therapeutic agents [PDF]
Objective Due to high cytotoxicity effect, ribonucleases (RNases) are known as pharmacological agents with therapeutic potential. The high potential of these enzymes in the destruction of RNA strand and their other substrates and subsequently, cell ...

Engineering and production of recombinant bovine pancreatic ribonuclease enzyme (RNase A) as a potential therapeutic [PDF]
Objective Immunotoxins are one of the most promising ways in therapeutic fields, specially cancer therapy which have a unique toxin-antibody structure, and kill the cancer cell by passing through the cell membrane and entering the target cell.

Horse Pancreatic Ribonuclease [PDF]
Horse ribonuclease was purified after acid extraction of pancreas by ammonium sulfate fractionation and chromatography on CM‐cellulose. It is a glycoprotein with an average molecular weight of about 18000. The pure enzyme was chromatographically and electrophoretically heterogeneous due to the heterogeneity of the carbohydrate moiety.The amino‐acid ...

Emerging biological functions of ribonuclease 1 and angiogenin
Pancreatic-type ribonucleases (ptRNases) are a large family of vertebrate-specific secretory endoribonucleases. These enzymes catalyze the degradation of many RNA substrates and thereby mediate a variety of biological functions.
