Bauhinia Kunitz-type proteinase inhibitors: structural characteristics and biological properties
(Walter de Gruyter & Co, 2008-08-01)
Plant proteinase inhibitors are involved in the regulation of the activity of many proteinases and, in consequence, in biological processes driven by proteolysis. in this review, we summarize recent results on the activity ...
Functional diversity of secreted cestode Kunitz proteins: Inhibition of serine peptidases and blockade of cation channels
(Public Library of Science, 2017-02)
We previously reported a multigene family of monodomain Kunitz proteins from Echinococcus granulosus (EgKU-1-EgKU-8), and provided evidence that some EgKUs are secreted by larval worms to the host interface. In addition, ...
A Kunitz-type peptide from Dendroaspis polylepis venom as a simultaneous inhibitor of serine and cysteine proteases
(2020-10-07)
Background: Proteases play an important role for the proper physiological functions of the most diverse organisms. When unregulated, they are associated with several pathologies. Therefore, proteases have become potential ...
A novel subclassification for Kunitz proteinase inhibitors from leguminous seeds
(Elsevier B.V., 2010-11-01)
Kunitz-type trypsin inhibitors from legume seeds have been characterized structurally. the presence of Cys-Cys in single or double chains shows a new pattern of proteins structurally not so closely related to STI. Therefore, ...
