Involvement of the Arg566 residue of Aeromonas sobria serine protease in substrate specificity

Aeromonas sobria serine protease (ASP) is an extracellular serine protease secreted by the organism. Here, we identified the amino acid residue of ASP that contributes to substrate specificity by using both synthetic peptides and biological protein components. The results showed that the arginine residue at position 566 (Arg-566) of ASP, which is located in the extra occluding region of ASP clo...

Aeromonas sobria Released from Production of C5a by ASP, a Serine Protease

Impaired plasma clottability induction through fibrinogen degradation by ASP, a serine protease released from Aeromonas sobria

Aeromonas sobria infection often advances to sepsis, in which interaction of bacterial components with plasma proteins possibly causes various disorders. This bacterium releases a serine protease (ASP), a putative virulence factor, and binds to fibrinogen. To study the ASP effect on fibrinogen, we incubated fibrinogen or plasma with ASP and investigated their clotting elicited by thrombin, whic...

the effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)

cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...
