Further Characterization of Endopeptidase H2 a Serine Proteinase from Human Urine

1992
A human urine serine proteinase chymotrypsin like hydrolyzes the peptide bonds: Phe-Ser (kinin); Gly-Gly, Leu-Arg, Phe-Lys (neuropeptides) and Gln-Gln (substance P). Endopeptidase H2 hydrolyzes better oligopeptides with 4 to 18 aminoacid residues than larger peptides, it does not hydrolyzes kininogen or proenkephalin.

Aeromonas sobria serine protease (ASP): a subtilisin family endopeptidase with multiple virulence activities

Biological Chemistry, 2017
AbstractAeromonas sobriaserine protease (ASP) is secreted fromAeromonas sobria, a pathogen causing gastroenteritis and sepsis. ASP resemblesSaccharomyces cerevisiaeKex2, a member of the subtilisin family, and preferentially cleaves peptide bonds at the C-terminal side of paired basic amino acid residues; also accepting unpaired arginine at the P1site ...

Partial purification and characterization of a serine endopeptidase from rat liver plasma membranes

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 1986
A serine endopeptidase was partially purified from rat liver plasma membranes by using a four-step procedure: solubilization with N-lauroylsarcosine; Ultrogel AcA-34 chromatography; CM Affi-Gel blue chromatography; agarose-soybean trypsin inhibitor chromatography.

Classification of sheep abomasal mucosal mast cell proteinase as a serine endopeptidase (EC 3.4.21)

International Journal of Biochemistry, 1988
1. Diisopropylphosphofluoridate (Dip-F) and phenylmethanesulphonylfluoride (Pms-F) are inhibitors of "serine" proteinases, and L-trans-epoxysuccinylleucylamido-(4-guanido)-butane (E-64) is an inhibitor of "thiol" proteinases. The effects of these inhibitors on sheep mast cell proteinase (SMCP) were examined. 2.

A novel leupeptin-sensitive serine endopeptidase present in normal and malignant rat mammary tissues

Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry, 1990
N-Methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU)-induced rat mammary adenocarcinomas contain high levels of a novel leupeptin-sensitive serine endopeptidase. Its properties apparently differ from those of other similar endopeptidases reported to be present in various normal and malignant mammalian tissues. The same leupeptinsensitive serine endopeptidase was also detected

The Albicidin Resistance Factor AlbD Is a Serine Endopeptidase That Hydrolyzes Unusual Oligoaromatic-Type Peptides

Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2015
The para-aminobenzoic acid-containing peptide albicidin is a pathogenicity factor synthesized by Xanthomonas albilineans in infections of sugar cane. Albicidin is a nanomolar inhibitor of the bacterial DNA gyrase with a strong activity against various Gram-negative bacteria.

Expression of Chironomus riparius serine-type endopeptidase gene under di-(2-ethylhexyl)-phthalate (DEHP) exposure

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2008
Environmental stressors can induce changes in gene expression that can be useful as biomarkers. To identify potential biomarkers of water quality, we characterized full-length cDNA sequences of the serine-type endopeptidase (SP) gene from Chironomus riparius.

Characterization of a kinin inactivating serine endopeptidase H2 (kininase) from human urine using fluorogenic substrates

Immunopharmacology, 1999
We have previously described a kinin-inactivating endopeptidase (H2), which was purified 19-fold from human urine by DEAE-cellulose chromatography and gel filtration. The enzyme was inhibited 100% by PMSF, TPCK and pOHMB. In the present communication, we further characterized this enzyme using the fluorogenic substrates Abz-RPPGFSPFRQ-EDDnp (Abz-BKQ ...

[The role of serine endopeptidase in cucumber leaf senescence].

Zhi wu sheng li yu fen zi sheng wu xue xue bao = Journal of plant physiology and molecular biology, 2009
The role of serine endopeptidase in cucumber leaf senescence was studied by using the inhibitor of serine endopeptidase and plant growth regulators (6-BA and ABA) on darkness-induced cucumber leaves. The results showed that the senescence of cucumber leaves were delayed by AEBSF [4-(2-aminoethyl) benzenesulfonyl fluoride hydrochloride], an inhibitor of
