The intracellular serpin family.
The serpins are widely distributed, structurally related family of proteins with diverse functions. Most of the known serpins are proteinase inhibitors, the majority being found as secreted species, however, there are a few that occur intracellularly and their physiological role remains unknown.

GbSER02 with a single base change (SNP517G) encodes normal serpin protein and interacts with transcription factor VOZ1 to alleviate the repression of VOZ1 on GA3ox1 and promote GA3 biosynthesis. Further, GA3 induces the expression of cell wall loosening‐related genes and decreases flavonoid content, ultimately facilitating fiber cell elongation in ...

Triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC) remains a major challenge in breast cancer management as it lacks effective therapeutic targets. This study uncovers that MYC/TET3‐regulated mitochondrial inner‐membrane protein TMEM65 promotes TNBC progression and cisplatin resistance by activating the OXPHOS‐SERPINB3 pathway and reveals TMEM65 as a potential ...

The stability and activity of human neuroserpin are modulated by a salt bridge that stabilises the reactive centre loop [PDF]
Neuroserpin (NS) is an inhibitory protein belonging to the serpin family and involved in several pathologies, including the dementia Familial Encephalopathy with Neuroserpin Inclusion Bodies (FENIB), a genetic neurodegenerative disease caused by ...

Brain metastases (BM) from lung cancer are aggressive with poor prognosis. This review covers clinical features, diagnosis, early metastasis, and multi‐omics‐elucidated mechanisms, especially the tumor microenvironment of lung cancer with BM. It also discusses preclinical models, signaling pathways, and emerging therapies.

Serine Protease Inhibitors Restrict Host Susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2 Infections
The coronavirus disease 2019, COVID-19, is a complex disease with a wide range of symptoms from asymptomatic infections to severe acute respiratory syndrome with lethal outcome. Individual factors such as age, sex, and comorbidities increase the risk for

All-atom simulations reveal how single point mutations promote serpin misfolding
Protein misfolding is implicated in many diseases, including the serpinopathies. For the canonical inhibitory serpin {\alpha}1-antitrypsin (A1AT), mutations can result in protein deficiencies leading to lung disease, and misfolded mutants can accumulate ...

Binding of Extracellular Maspin to 1 Integrins Inhibits Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Migration [PDF]
Maspin is a serpin that has multiple effects on cell behavior, including inhibition of migration. How maspin mediates these diverse effects remains unclear, as it is devoid of protease inhibitory activity.

Serpins regulate coagulation and inflammation, binding serine proteases in suicide-inhibitory complexes. Target proteases cleave the serpin reactive center loop scissile P1–P1′ bond, resulting in serpin-protease suicide-inhibitory complexes.
