The effects of a plant proteinase inhibitor from Enterolobium contortisiliquum on human tumor cell lines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Supplementary to the efficient inhibition of trypsin, chymotrypsin, plasma kallikrein, and plasmin already described by the EcTI inhibitor from Enterolobium contortisiliquum, it also blocks human neutrophil elastase (K(iapp)=4.3 nM) and prevents phorbol ...

Differential in vitro and in vivo effect of barley cysteine and serine protease inhibitors on phytopathogenic microorganisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Protease inhibitors from plants have been involved in defence mechanisms against pests and pathogens. Phytocystatins and trypsin/α-amylase inhibitors are two of the best characterized protease inhibitor families in plants.

Investigating Polypharmacology Through Targeting Known Human Neutrophil Elastase Inhibitors to Proteinase 3 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Using a combination of state-of-the-art free energy computational approaches together with in vitro IC50 assays, we evaluated the polypharmacological potential of a scaffold currently in clinical trials for inhibition of human neutrophil elastase (HNE ...

Induction of Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) Release from Subtypes of T Cells by Agonists of Proteinase Activated Receptors

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2013
Serine proteinases have been recognized as playing an important role in inflammation via proteinase activated receptors (PARs). However, little is known about the influence of serine proteinases and PARs on TNF secretion from highly purified T cells.

Development of an in vitro cleavage assay system to examine vaccinia virus I7L cysteine proteinase activity

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2005
Through the use of transient expression assays and directed genetics, the vaccinia virus (VV) I7L gene product has been implicated as the major maturational proteinase required for viral core protein cleavage to occur during virion assembly.

Dietary regulation of serine proteinases that are resistant to serine proteinase inhibitors

open access: yesJournal of Insect Physiology, 1997
Ingestion of Kunitz soybean trypsin inhibitor (STI) by larval Helicoverpa zea, Agrotis ipsilon, and Trichoplusia ni extended the retention time of food in the digestive tract and increased the level of activity of proteolytic enzymes that were not susceptible to inhibition by STI.

Serine proteinases and their inhibitors in Phycomyces blakesleeanus.

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1979
Three serine proteinases of Phycomyces blakesleeanus were isolated and characterized. The molecular weights were determined to be 18,000, 22,000, and 60,000. The proteinases were solubilized by detergent or salt treatment. Two soluble proteins that specifically inhibit these proteinases were also isolated and characterized. Both these proteins formed 1:

The use of phenyl-Sepharose for the affinity purification of proteinases [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Phenyl-Sepharose is most often used as an adsorbent for hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC). We report on its effective use for the affinity purification of some extracellular thermostable proteinases from bacterial sources.

TMPRSS2 as a Key Player in Viral Pathogenesis: Influenza and Coronaviruses

open access: yesBiomolecules
TMPRSS2, a human transmembrane protease enzyme, plays a crucial role in the spread of certain viruses, including influenza and coronaviruses. This enzyme promotes viral infection by cleaving viral glycoproteins, which helps viruses like SARS-CoV-2 and ...

Proteinase inhibitors in Brazilian leguminosae

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1991
Serine proteinase inhitors, in the seeds of several Leguminosae from the Pantanal region (West Brazil), were studied using bovine trypsin, a digestive enzyme, Factor XIIa and human plasma Kallikrein, two blood clotting factors.
