‘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.

The Bacillus subtilis signaling protein SpoIVB defines a new family of serine peptidases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The protein SpoIVB plays a key role in signaling in the sigma (K) checkpoint of Bacillus subtilis. This regulatory mechanism coordinates late gene expression during development in this organism and we have recently shown SpoIVB to be a serine peptidase ...

The GB virus C (GBV-C) NS3 serine protease inhibits HIV-1 replication in a CD4+ T lymphocyte cell line without decreasing HIV receptor expression. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
INTRODUCTION: Persistent infection with GBV-C (GB Virus C), a non-pathogenic virus related to hepatitis C virus (HCV), prolongs survival in HIV infection. Two GBV-C proteins, NS5A and E2, have been shown previously to inhibit HIV replication in vitro. We

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.

Antibodies to Serine Proteases in the Antiphospholipid Syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Rheumatology Reports, 2010
It is generally accepted that the major autoantigen for antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) in the antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is beta(2)-glycoprotein I (beta(2)GPI). However, a recent study has revealed that some aPL bind to certain conformational epitope(s) on beta(2)GPI shared by the homologous enzymatic domains of several serine proteases ...
