Identification of a Novel Thermostable Alkaline Protease from Bacillus megaterium-TK1 for the Detergent and Leather Industry

open access: yesBiology, 2020
An increased need by the green industry for enzymes that can be exploited for eco-friendly industrial applications led us to isolate and identify a unique protease obtained from a proteolytic Bacillus megaterium-TK1 strain from a seawater source.

Cloning and characterization of Bombyx mandarina serine protease-like protein

open access: yes浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2014
The complementary deoxyribonucleic acid (cDNA) of Bombyx mandarina serine protease-like protein gene was cloned by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).

The HtrA family of serine proteases [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, 1997
HtrA, also known as DegP and probably identical to the Do protease, is a heat shock‐induced serine protease that is active in the periplasm of Escherichia coli. Homologues of HtrA have been described in a wide range of bacteria and in eukaryotes. Its chief role is to degrade misfolded proteins in the periplasm.

Skin barrier lipid enzyme activity in Netherton patients is associated with protease activity and ceramide abnormalities[S]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2020
Individuals with Netherton syndrome (NTS) have increased serine protease activity, which strongly impacts the barrier function of the skin epidermis and leads to skin inflammation. Here, we investigated how serine protease activity in NTS correlates with

SjAPI, the first functionally characterized Ascaris-type protease inhibitor from animal venoms. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Serine protease inhibitors act as modulators of serine proteases, playing important roles in protecting animal toxin peptides from degradation. However, all known serine protease inhibitors discovered thus far from animal venom belong to the Kunitz-type ...

‘Heat-Treatment Aqueous Two Phase System’ for Purification of Serine Protease from Kesinai (Streblus asper) Leaves

open access: yesMolecules, 2011
A ‘Heat treatment aqueous two phase system’ was employed for the first time to purify serine protease from kesinai (Streblus asper) leaves. In this study, introduction of heat treatment procedure in serine protease purification was investigated.

A serine protease inhibitor attenuates aldosterone-induced kidney injuries via the suppression of plasmin activity

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2016
Emerging evidence has suggested that aldosterone has direct deleterious effects on the kidney independently of its hemodynamic effects. However, the detailed mechanisms of these direct effects remain to be elucidated.

Intramolecular Modulation of Serine Protease Inhibitor Activity in a Marine Cyanobacterium with Antifeedant Properties

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2010
Extracts of the Floridian marine cyanobacterium Lyngbya cf. confervoides were found to deter feeding by reef fish and sea urchins (Diadema antillarum).

Serine Proteases of Parasitic Helminths

open access: yesThe Korean Journal of Parasitology, 2015
Serine proteases form one of the most important families of enzymes and perform significant functions in a broad range of biological processes, such as intra- and extracellular protein metabolism, digestion, blood coagulation, regulation of development, and fertilization.

Aedes aegypti CLIPB9 activates prophenoloxidase-3 in the presence of CLIPA14 after fungal infection

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Melanization is an integral part of the insect defense system and is often induced by pathogen invasion. Phenoloxidases (POs) are critical enzymes that catalyze melanin formation.
