Natural Abundance of δ15N Confirms Insectivorous Habit ofRoridula gorgonias, Despite it Having No Proteolytic Enzymes

Proteolytic enzymes.

Leipner, J. and R. Saller (2000). "Systemic enzyme therapy in oncology: effect and mode of action." Drugs 59(4): 769-80. Plant extracts with a high content of proteolytic enzymes have been used for a long time in traditional medicine. Besides proteolytic enzymes from plants, 'modern' enzyme therapy additionally includes pancreatic enzymes. The therapeutic use of proteolytic enzymes is partly ba...

Proteolytic enzymes of lung.

The lung usually is considered to be a passive tissue whose main function is to permit gaseous diffusion to and from the blood; however, the lung is also an organ of defense. Its phagocytes remove inhaled dust particles and bacteria. A considerable part of the lung parenchyma consists of mononuclear phagocytes and potential mononuclear phagocytes. Since these cells are not readily available in ...

The Chemistry of Proteolytic Enzymes

The study of the relationship between the genetic evolution, the structure and the function of enzymes is given a variety of names, such as molecular biology, molecular genetics, and evolutional biochemistry. In our Laboratory we started from organic chemistry, and we try to use the methods of chemistry as much as possible in this field of biologically active macromolecules. About ten years ago...
