Digestive physiology and characterization of digestive cathepsin L-like proteinase from the sugarcane weevil Sphenophorus levis
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2011)
Sugarcane is an important crop that has recently become subject to attacks from the weevil Sphenophorus levis, which is not efficiently controlled with chemical insecticides. This demands the development of new control ...
Measuring elastase, proteinase 3 and cathepsin G activities at the surface of human neutrophils with fluorescence resonance energy transfer substrates
(Nature Publishing Group, 2008-01-01)
The neutrophil serine proteases (NSPs) elastase, proteinase 3 and cathepsin G are multifunctional proteases involved in pathogen destruction and the modulation of inflammatory processes. A fraction of secreted NSPs remains ...
New, sensitive fluorogenic substrates for human cathepsin G based on the sequence of serpin-reactive site loops
(Amer Soc Biochemistry Molecular Biology Inc, 1999-05-14)
Cathepsin G has both trypsin- and chymotrypsin-like activity, but studies on its enzymatic properties have been limited by a lack of sensitive synthetic substrates. Cathepsin G activity is physiologically controlled by the ...
Characterization of proteinases from the midgut of Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus involved in the generation of antimicrobial peptides
(BIOMED CENTRAL LTD, 2010-07-27)
Background: Hemoglobin is a rich source of biologically active peptides, some of which are potent antimicrobials (hemocidins). A few hemocidins have been purified from the midgut contents of ticks. Nonetheless, how ...
