Family C1 cysteine proteases: biological diversity or redundancy?
Recent progress in the identification and partial characterization of novel genes encoding cysteine proteases of the papain family has considerably increased our knowledge of this family of enzymes. Kinetic data available to date for this large family indicate relatively broad, overlapping specificities for most enzymes, thus inspiring a growing conviction that they may exhibit functional redun...
متن کاملEvolution and biological control
Opinions about the value of biological control are often extreme. Colloquially, biological control most often refers to classical biological control, in which one species is introduced from another region to control pests such as arthropod herbivores in agricultural systems, or weeds in managed and natural systems. As such, biological control has the potential to be a low-cost, chemical free, m...
متن کاملProtein quality control: triage by chaperones and proteases.
Proteases and chaperones together serve to maintain quahty control of cellular proteins. Both types of en zymes have as their substrates the variety of misfolded and partially folded proteins that arise from slow rates of folding or assembly, chemical or thermal stress, intrinsic structural instability, and biosynthetic errors. The pri mary function of classical chaperones, such as the Esch ...

Anderson, L. M., Stockwell, V. O., and Loper, J. E. 2004. An extracellular protease of Pseudomonas fluorescens inactivates antibiotics of Pantoea agglomerans. Phytopathology 94:1228-1234. Pseudomonas fluorescens A506 and Pantoea agglomerans strains Eh252 and C9-1 are biological control agents that suppress fire blight, an important disease of pear and apple caused by the bacterium Erwinia amylo...
متن کاملBiological control and refuge theory.
REFERENCES tions arising from the intluences of host and parasitoid phenologies (3). Single values cannot characterize host-parasitoid interactions, and maximum values are unlikely to be typical over longer times or in different areas (4). 4) Contrary to the prediction made by Hawkins et al., successful biological control can result from the use of agents that are characterized by low rates of ...
