IL‐7R‐Enriched Extracellular Vesicles From the Thymus Drive Colitis via Promoting Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Formation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) pathogenesis remains unclear. This study reveals that thymus‐originated IL‐7R‐enriched extracellular vesicles exacerbate colitis by promoting neutrophil extracellular traps via a thymus‐gut axis, uncovering an inter‐organ communication mechanism in inflammatory bowel disease pathogenesis.

A Keratinocyte‐Mast Cell NF‐κB2/CXCL2/IL‐6 Amplification Loop Enhances Cutaneous Antifungal Defense Against C. albicans

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mast cells (MCs), key innate immune sentinels at the host–environment interface, serve as primary responders to invading pathogens. However, their specific contribution to host defense against cutaneous Candida albicans (C. albicans) infection and their synergy with other immune and non‐immune cells remain poorly understood. Here, we show that

Regulation and regulatory role of proteinase inhibitors [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
Excess or ill-timed proteolytic events have, of necessity, to be restrained. Therefore, there are partner proteinase inhibitors to most of the known mammalian enzymes that cleave peptide bonds, a situation that implicates the inhibitors in a myriad of ...

Redox‐Dependent Chaperoning of GBF1 Condensates Regulates Seed Germination in Arabidopsis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In dormant seeds (low ROS), GBF1 forms liquid condensates to repress the germination gene CathB3, and the chaperone GIP1 maintains condensate liquidity and repressive activity. Upon imbibition (high ROS), ROS oxidize GIP1 during germination, impairing its chaperone function.

Purification and characterization of serine proteinase inhibitors from two South African indigenous plants, Acacia karoo and Acacia schweinfurthii [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Serine proteases are known to perform a wide range of functions essential to life; however there has to be some form of control mechanism in place.

Extracellular serine-proteinases isolated from Streptomyces alboniger: Partial characterization and effect of aprotinin on cellular structure

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1999
Streptomyces alboniger ATCC 12461 grown in brain heart infusion (BHI) medium produced two extracellular serine-proteinases, denoted SP I and SP II, which were purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation and aprotinin-agarose affinity chromatography.

Inhibitors of Serine Proteinase - Application in Agriculture and Medicine

open access: yes, 2012
Inhibitors are important elements of regulation of enzyme activity. They can be named ubiquitous components in living organisms (Fan & Wu, 2005). There is a number of inhibitors, such as protein and nonprotein. Among all inhibitors, the most significant are inhibitors of hydrolytic enzymes.

Natural Variation of NAR5 Determines Nitrogenase Activity and the Yield in Soybean

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identified NAR5, a gene encoding a subtilisin‐like protease, that regulates nitrogenase activity in soybean nodules. Overexpressing NAR5 delayed nodule senescence, enhancing nitrogenase activity, yield, and low‐nitrogen tolerance. The elite haplotype NAR5HapI‐1 linked to superior nitrogenase activity and greater seed weight has been ...
