Arginine Inhibits Serpins [PDF]

open access: yesClinical and Applied Thrombosis/Hemostasis, 2007
Serine protease inactivators (serpins) are important regulators in biochemistry. Often it is necessary to block the serpin action, that is, to stabilize the sample. The guanidine group of arginine is the ligand for the active center pocket of many serine proteases.

Symbiont‐Induced HSP83 Establishes Two‐Tiered Control of Antifungal Immunity in an Invasive Beetle–Fungus Complex

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In an invasive beetle–fungus complex, the mutualist Leptographium procerum induces host HSP83 and modulates Toll‐dependent antifungal immunity. HSP83 mediates two‐tiered control by associating with selected fungal recognition receptors and restraining Dorsal‐driven antimicrobial peptide transcription.

Investigated tsetse midgut serpins.

open access: yes, 2015
Four putative serpins were initially identified from a tsetse midgut EST library. Subsequent sequencing and annotation of the genome has now assigned these serpins with GMOY IDs in the Invertebrate Vectors of Human Pathogens database, VectorBase (https://

Thrombin Inhibition by Serpins Disrupts Exosite II [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Thrombin uses three principal sites, the active site, exosite I, and exosite II, for recognition of its many cofactors and substrates. It is synthesized in the zymogen form, prothrombin, and its activation at the end of the blood coagulation cascade ...

hibitor (serpin) gene family; annotation and transcriptional analysis

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2009
Background Serine proteinase inhibitors (Serpins) are a large superfamily of structurally related, but functionally diverse proteins that control essential proteolytic pathways in most branches of life.

Stepwise Reversion of Multiply Mutated Recombinant Antitrypsin Reveals a Selective Inhibitor of Coagulation Factor XIa as Active as the M358R Variant

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT, also known as alpha-1 proteinase inhibitor or SERPINA1) is the most abundant member of the serpin superfamily found in human plasma.

Genotype–Phenotype Correlations of Monoallelic PFIC Variants in Pediatric Liver Disease: A Multicenter Retrospective Cohort Study

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC) is classically caused by biallelic pathogenic variants, yet monoallelic variants of uncertain significance (VUS) in PFIC‐associated genes are increasingly identified in children with cholestasis, creating diagnostic uncertainty.

Serpins from wheat grain [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Wheat serpin genes have been identified by Southern blot hybridization with three distinct barley protein Z probes. Immunoblot analysis with a monoclonal antibody towards barley protein Z confirmed expression of related Mr ~ 40 kDa proteins in wheat ...
