Ecotin-like serine peptidase inhibitor ISP1 of Leishmania major plays a role in flagellar pocket dynamics and promastigote differentiation [PDF]

, 2012
Leishmania ISPs are ecotin-like natural peptide inhibitors of trypsin-family serine peptidases, enzymes that are absent from the Leishmania genome. This led to the proposal that ISPs inhibit host serine peptidases and we have recently shown that ISP2 ...

Purification and biochemical characterization of a vacuolar serine endopeptidase induced by glucose starvation in maize roots [PDF]

Biochemical Journal, 1996
An endopeptidase (designated RSIP, for root-starvation-induced protease) was purified to homogeneity from glucose-starved maize roots. The molecular mass of the enzyme was 59 kDa by SDS/PAGE under reducing conditions and 62 kDa by gel filtration on a Sephacryl S-200 column. The isoelectric point of RSIP was 4.55. The purified enzyme was stable, with no

Proteases Shape the Chlamydomonas Secretome: Comparison to Classical Neuropeptide Processing Machinery

Proteomes, 2018
The recent identification of catalytically active peptidylglycine α-amidating monooxygenase (PAM) in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, a unicellular green alga, suggested the presence of a PAM-like gene and peptidergic signaling in the last eukaryotic ...

Action of Serine Carboxypeptidases on Endopeptidase Substrates, N-Acyldipeptideamides [PDF]

Bulletin of the Chemical Society of Japan, 1987
Abstract Action patterns of two serine carboxypeptidases, one from yeast (Y) and the other from wheat bran (W), on N-[3-(2-furyl)acryloyl]-(Fua-) dipeptideamide substrates were examined by HPLC and amino acid analysis. In the reaction of the wheat enzyme the substrates were hydrolyzed to Fua-amino acid and no sufficient amount of Fua ...

Immunoglobulin A protease from Sutterella wadsworthensis modifies outcome of infection with Campylobacter jejuni and is associated with microbiome diversity

Gut Microbes
Sutterella wadsworthensis is an enigmatic member of the microbiota, previously reported to be present in healthy humans yet also associated with certain gut diseases and their therapeutic outcomes. Here, we report on S.

Proteases that degrade the biofilm matrix

Zdorovʹe Rebenka, 2020
Biofilms protect bacteria from the action of antibacterial drugs and are one of the mechanisms of antibiotic resistance of infections. Destruction of the bacterial biofilm matrix leads to the release of bacteria and they again become vulnerable to ...

Genetic Biodiversity and Posttranslational Modifications of Protease Serine Endopeptidase in Different Strains of Sordaria fimicola

BioMed Research International, 2023
Genetic variations (mutation, crossing over, and recombination) act as a source for the gradual alternation in phenotype along a geographic transect where the environment changes. Posttranslational modifications (PTMs) predicted modifications successfully in different and the same species of living organisms.

Modulation of posterior intestinal mucosal proteome in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) after Yersinia ruckeri infection

Veterinary Research, 2019
Yersinia ruckeri is the causative agent of enteric redmouth disease in salmonids. In fish, the intestine represents an important site of nutrient uptake, host–pathogen interactions, and defense.
