Plant serine proteases: biochemical, physiological and molecular features.
In the latest two decades, the interest received by plant proteases has been on the rise. Serine proteases (EC 3.4.21)-in particular those from cucurbits, cereals and trees-share indeed a number of biochemical and physiological features, that may prove useful toward understanding of several mechanisms at the subcellular level. This critical review focuses on the characterization of most plant s...
متن کاملUpdate on Plant Lipoxygenases Plant Lipoxygenases. Physiological and Molecular Features
Lipoxygenases (LOXs; EC 1.13.11.12) are nonheme iron-containing dioxygenases widely distributed in plants and animals. LOX catalyzes the addition of molecular oxygen to polyunsaturated fatty acids containing a (Z,Z)-1,4-pentadiene system to produce an unsaturated fatty acid hydroperoxide. LOX initiates the synthesis of a group of acyclic or cyclic compounds collectively called oxylipins, which ...
متن کاملPhysiological and Molecular Plant Pathology
A concise and factual abstract is required (maximum length 100 words). The abstract should statebriefly the purpose of the research, the principal results and major conclusions. An abstract is oftenpresented separately from the article, so it must be able to stand alone. For this reason, Referencesshould be avoided, but if essential, then cite the author(s) and year(s). Also, no...
متن کاملPlant proteases: from phenotypes to molecular mechanisms.
Plant genomes encode hundreds of proteases, which represent dozens of unrelated families. The biological role of these proteases is mostly unknown, but mutant alleles, gene silencing, and overexpression studies have provided phenotypes for a growing number of proteases. The aim of this review is to show the diversity of the processes that are regulated by proteases, and to summarize the current...
متن کاملMolecular cloning of serine proteases from elapid snake venoms.
Serine proteases are widely distributed in viperid snake venoms, but rare in elapid snake venoms. Previously, we have identified a fibrinogenolytic enzyme termed OhS1 from the venom of Ophiophagus hannah. The results indicated that OhS1 might be a serine protease, but there was no structural evidence previously. In the present study, the primary structure of OhS1 was determined by protein seque...
