Characterization of a novel Kazal-type serine proteinase inhibitor of Arabidopsis thaliana
(Elsevier France-editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, 2016-04)
Many different types of serine proteinase inhibitors have been involved in several kinds of plant physiological processes, including defense mechanisms against phytopathogens. Kazal-type serine proteinase inhibitors, which ...
Molecular cloning and characterization of procirsin, an active aspartic protease precursor from Cirsium vulgare (Asteraceae)
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2012-09)
Typical aspartic proteinases from plants of the Astereaceae family like cardosins and cyprosins are well-known milk-clotting enzymes. Their effectiveness in cheesemaking has encouraged several studies on other Astereaceae ...
A new approach to fishery waste revalorization to enhance Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) digestion process
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2017-12)
The main goal of this research was to analyse in vitro compatibility of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) digestive proteinases and enzymes recovered from species comprising fishery waste as Pleoticus muelleri, Artemesia ...
The recombinant cysteine proteinase B (CPB) from Leishmania braziliensis and its domains: promising antigens for serodiagnosis of cutaneous and visceral leishmaniasis in dogs.
(American Society for Microbiology, 2019-10-23)
Leishmaniasis represents a group of parasitic diseases caused by a protozoan of the genus Leishmania and is widely distributed in tropical and subtropical regions. Leishmaniasis is one of the major tropical neglected ...
B-casein hydrolysate generated by the cell envelope-associated proteinase of Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. lactis CRL 581 protects against trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid-induced colitis in mice
(Elsevier, 2012-02)
Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. lactis CRL 581, a thermophilic lactic acid bacterium used as a starter culture for the manufacture of several fermented dairy products, possess an efficient proteolytic system which is able ...
The activity of a developmentally regulated cysteine proteinase is required for cyst wall formation in the primitive eukaryote Giardia lamblia
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2002-03)
Giardia is an intestinal parasite that belongs to the earliest diverging branch of the eukaryotic lineage of descent. Giardia undergoes adaptation for survival outside the host's intestine by differentiating into infective ...
Digestive proteinases from marine fish processing wastes of Southwest Atlantic Ocean: their partial characterization and comparison
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-10)
Fish processing generates plenty of waste that is directly discarded on open-air dumpsand water sources, or treated in the same way as urban solid waste causing seriouspollution problems. The waste represents a significant ...
Antimicrobial activity of an aspartic protease from Salpichroa origanifolia fruits
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2018-04-24)
Abstract: Plant proteases play a fundamental role in several processes like growth, development and in response to biotic and abiotic stress. In particular, aspartic proteases (AP) are expressed in different plant organs ...
Three-dimensional morphology of rigid structures as a tool for taxonomic studies of Dactylogyridae (Monogenea)
(Springer, 2017-08-19)
Dactylogyridae is overwhelmingly the most abundant and diverse taxon among monogeneans in continental waters of South America. Their small body size requires considerable sampling effort and training for collecting and ...
Different soybean cultivars respond differentially to damage in a herbivore-specific manner and decreas herbivore performance
(Springer, 2020-02)
This study demonstrates that soybean cultivars respond differentially to damage in a herbivore-specific manner, and trigger responses decreasing herbivore performance. Soybean crops are affected by a great number of insect ...
