Peptide signaling in plants [PDF]
In plants, only a few peptides have been identified that act as signaling molecules (1). In contrast, signaling peptides are major players in all aspects of the life cycle in animals and yeast (2), suggesting that signaling mechanisms across the eukaryotic kingdom are fundamentally different. In animals and yeast, signaling peptides are synthesized, in

Intracellular Signalling by C‐Peptide [PDF]
C‐peptide, a cleavage product of the proinsulin molecule, has long been regarded as biologically inert, serving merely as a surrogate marker for insulin release. Recent findings demonstrate both a physiological and protective role of C‐peptide when administered to individuals with type I diabetes.

Soluble secretory proteins with a signal peptide reach the extracellular space through the endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi conventional pathway. During translation, the signal peptide is recognised by the signal recognition particle and results in a co ...

Signal peptide peptidases and gamma-secretase: Cousins of the same protease family? [PDF]
Signal peptide peptidase (SPIP) is an unusual aspartyl protease, which mediates clearance of signal peptides by proteolysis within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER).

Peptides play a number of crucial roles as signaling molecules in metazoans. In order to elaborate a more complete picture of the roles played by peptides in a single organism, we launched the "Hydra Peptide Project". For this project, we used Hydra magnipapillata, a species belonging to Cnidaria, one of the most basal metazoan phyla, and using a ...

Designing and constructing recombinant expression cassettes for production and secretion of recombinant proteins in the hairy root [PDF]
Objective The use of plant expression systems to produce recombinant proteins have advantages such as different methods for transformation and culture, occurrence of appropriate post-translational modifications and no risk of contamination with animal ...

Phytosulfokine peptide signalling [PDF]
Phytosulfokine (PSK) belongs to the group of plant peptide growth factors. It is a disulfated pentapeptide encoded by precursor genes that are ubiquitously present in higher plants, suggestive of universal functions. Processing of the preproprotein involves sulfonylation by a tyrosylprotein sulfotransferase in the trans-golgi and proteolytic cleavage ...

Bioactive peptides: signaling the future [PDF]
SummaryNatural processes within the body are modulated almost exclusively by the interaction of specific amino acid sequences, either as peptides or as subsections of proteins. With respect to skin, proteins and peptides are involved in the modulation of cell proliferation, cell migration, inflammation, angiogenesis, melanogenesis, and protein ...
