By 0-(diethylaminoethy1)cellulose (DEAE-cellulose) chromatography, affinity chromatography, and Sephadex gel filtration, six proteolytic enzymes active in alkaline medium have been found in the digestive portion of the midgut (tissue and lumen contents) of adult Glossina morsitans morsitans. By use of synthetic substrates the enzymes have been characterized as aminopeptidase (AP; EC. 3.4.11.1),...
Mitochondrial cholesterol 27-hydroxylase (CYP27A1) plays an important role in the maintenance of intracellular cholesterol homeostasis. Cholesterol delivery to the mitochondrial inner membrane is believed to be a rate-limiting step for the "acidic" pathway of bile acid synthesis. This work reports that proteinase K treatment of mitochondria markedly increases CYP27A1 specific activity. With end...
Proteins of the Bowman-Birk inhibitor family of serine proteinase inhibitors interact with the enzymes they inhibit via an exposed surface loop that adopts the canonical proteinase inhibitory conformation. The resulting non-covalent complex renders the proteinase inactive. This inhibition mechanism is common for the majority of serine proteinase inhibitor proteins and many analogous examples ar...
Two proteinases (proteinases I and II) have been purified from Crotalus adamanteus venom to the stage of electrophoretic homogeneity and proteinase II has been crystallized. The proteinase differ slightly in molecular weight and amino acid composition. Both are metalloenzymes requiring Zn2+ or Ca2+, or both; neither requires thiol compounds for activation. The proteinases are free of esterolyti...
Rabbit alveolar macrophages were cultured in an environment conducive to the secretion of both reactive oxygen and proteinases, so that the relative importance of proteolytic and oxidative inactivation of alpha 1-proteinase inhibitor by alveolar macrophages could be evaluated. The inactivation of alpha 1-proteinase inhibitor was proportional to its proteolysis, and there was no detectable inact...
Sixty-six clinical isolates of Candida albicans representing 14 different strain types were tested for their phospholipase and proteinase activities in correlation with adherence to buccal epithelial cells (BECs) and lethality to mice. Variations in phospholipase and proteinase production as well as adherence to BECs were observed both among isolates of the same strain type and between isolates...
BACKGROUND The defensive effect of endogenous trypsin proteinase inhibitors (NaTPIs) on the herbivore Manduca sexta was demonstrated by genetically altering NaTPI production in M. sexta's host plant, Nicotiana attenuata. To understand how this defense works, we studied the effects of NaTPI on M. sexta gut proteinase activity levels in different larval instars of caterpillars feeding freely on u...
The main proteinase of SARS-associated coronavirus (SARS-CoV) plays an important role in viral transcription and replication, and is an attractive target for anti-SARS drug development. The important thing is to understand its binding mechanism with possible ligands. In this study, we investigated possible noncanonical interactions, potential inhibitors, and binding pockets in the main proteina...
Cystatin C is a human cysteine proteinase inhibitor present in extracellular fluids. Cystatin C and a tripeptide derivative (Z-LVG-CHN2) that mimics its proteinase-binding center, were tested for possible antiviral activity against herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV) and poliovirus type 1. Both recombinant cystatin C and Z-LVG-CHN2 displayed strong inhibitory effects on HSV replication, whereas n...
In diagnostic and research bacteriology settings with budget and staff restrictions, fast and cost-effective genome extraction methods are desirable. If not inactivated properly, cellular and/or environmental DNA nucleases will degrade genomic material during the extraction stage, and therefore might give rise to incorrect results in PCR experiments. When crude cell extracts, proteinase K–treat...
