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

Matriptase regulates c-Met mediated proliferation and invasion in inflammatory breast cancer. [PDF]
The poor prognosis for patients with inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) compared to patients with other types of breast cancers emphasizes the need to better understand the molecular underpinnings of this disease with the goal of developing effective ...
