Systematic review and network meta-analysis on the efficacy of evolocumab and other therapies for the management of lipid levels in hyperlipidemia [PDF]

, 2017
Background: The proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors evolocumab and alirocumab substantially reduce low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL‐C) when added to statin therapy in patients who need additional LDL‐C reduction ...

Safety evaluation of the food enzyme subtilisin from the genetically modified Bacillus licheniformis strain NZYM‐CB

EFSA Journal
The food enzyme subtilisin (EC 3.4.21.62) is produced with the genetically modified Bacillus licheniformis strain NZYM‐CB by Novozymes A/S. The genetic modifications do not give rise to safety concerns.

Human fur gene encodes a yeast KEX2-like endoprotease that cleaves pro-beta-NGF in vivo. [PDF]

, 1990
Extracts from BSC-40 cells infected with vaccinia recombinants expressing either the yeast KEX2 prohormone endoprotease or a human structural homologue (fur gene product) contained an elevated level of a membrane-associated endoproteolytic activity that ...

High levels of serum cholesterol increase the risk of developing vessel co‐opting tumors in colorectal cancer liver metastases

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
High serum cholesterol is linked to colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRCLM) subtypes with poor survival (replacement pattern). Levels of cholesterol under 4 mmol·L−1 correlated with better survival and a desmoplastic pattern subtype. Furthermore, in vivo PCSK9 inhibitor evolocumab, which lowers cholesterol, reduced liver metastases.

Safety evaluation of the food enzyme subtilisin from the non‐genetically modified Bacillus paralicheniformis strain AP‐01

EFSA Journal
The food enzyme subtilisin (EC 3.4.21.62) is produced with the non‐genetically modified Bacillus paralicheniformis strain AP‐01 by Nagase (Europa) GmbH. It was considered free from viable cells of the production organism.

Site-directed mutagenesis of the proposed catalytic amino acids of the Sindbis virus capsid protein autoprotease [PDF]

, 1990
The structural proteins of Sindbis virus are translated as a polyprotein precursor that is cleaved upon translation. The capsid protein is postulated to be a serine protease that releases itself from the N terminus of the nascent polyprotein by ...

The hydrolysis of the three clupein components by subtilisin Novo, subtilisin Carlsberg and nitrated subtilisin Carlsberg [PDF]

Carlsberg Research Communications, 1976
The three components of clupein (YI, YII and Z) were hydrolyzed by subtilisin Carlsberg and subtilisin Novo. Subtilisin Novo hydrolyzed all three components much faster than did subtilisin Carlsberg, but components YII and Z were hydrolyzed with the same initial rate and faster than component YI.

Phytosulfokine signalling blocks mycotoxin toxicity in Arabidopsis and mediates suppression of cell death activated by bacterial microbe‐associated molecular patterns

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Fumonisin B1 (FB1) is a mycotoxin that disrupts ceramide biosynthesis and kills plants. Prior activation with bacterial microbe‐associated molecular patterns (MAMPs), such as components of bacterial flagella, effectively suppresses FB1‐induced cell death.
