A Clinical Update on SARS-CoV-2: Pathology and Development of Potential Inhibitors
SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome) is highly infectious and causes severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (SARD), immune suppression, and multi-organ failure. For SARS-CoV-2, only supportive treatment options are available, such as oxygen

Pest protection conferred by a Beta vulgaris serine proteinase inhibitor gene. [PDF]
Proteinase inhibitors provide a means of engineering plant resistance to insect pests. A Beta vulgaris serine proteinase inhibitor gene (BvSTI) was fused to the constitutive CaMV35S promoter for over-expression in Nicotiana benthamiana plants to study ...

Non‐peptide inhibitors of HCV serine proteinase [PDF]
We screened a chemical library of 2000 compounds for inhibitors of hepatitis C virus (HCV) serine proteinase using an in vitro screening method measuring the hydrolysis of the peptide substrate. Three compounds were found to be the most potent inhibitors (IC50<10−5 M).

The effect of melanin on the proteolytic potential of blood under alkali esophageal burn
Caustic esophageal burns are among serious medical problems of global significance. Due to a key role in biological processes proteolytic enzymes actively involved in the pathological mechanisms underpinning the development and progression of burn ...

A KLK4 proteinase substrate capture approach to antagonize PAR1
Proteinase-activated receptor-1 (PAR1), triggered by thrombin and other serine proteinases such as tissue kallikrein-4 (KLK4), is a key driver of inflammation, tumor invasiveness and tumor metastasis.

During inflammation neutrophils become activated and segregate neutrophil serine proteases (NSPs) to the surrounding environment in order to support a natural immune defense. However, an excess of proteolytic activity of NSPs can cause many complications,

The synthesis of peptidylfluoromethanes and their properties as inhibitors of serine proteinases and cysteine proteinases [PDF]
A synthesis of peptidylfluoromethanes is described that utilizes the conversion of phthaloyl amino acids into their fluoromethane derivatives. These can be deblocked and elongated. The inactivation of chymotrypsin by Cbz-Phe-CH2F (benzyloxycarbonylphenylalanylfluoromethane) was found to be considerably slower than that of the analogous chloromethane ...

Study on Serine Proteinase in the Muscle of Yesso Scallops (Mizuhopecten yessoensis)
To investigate the effect of endogenous protease on the texture of Yesso scallop muscle during cold storage, the texture and protein change related indexes of Yesso scallop muscle was measured during 4 ℃ cold storage 7 d with a purpose to identify the ...

Identification of three stage-specific proteinases of Plasmodium falciparum. [PDF]
We have identified and characterized three stage-specific proteinases of Plasmodium falciparum that are active at neutral pH. We analyzed ring-, trophozoite-, schizont-, and merozoite-stage parasites by gelatin substrate PAGE and characterized the ...

Protein inhibitors of serine proteinases.
Serine proteinases and their natural protein inhibitors belong to the most intensively studied models of protein-protein recognition. Protein inhibitors do not form a single group but can be divided into about 20 different families. Global structures of proteins representing different inhibitor families are completely different and comprise alpha ...
