Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Review: Biodegradation and Applications of Keratin Degrading Microorganisms and Keratinolytic Enzymes, Focusing on Thermophiles and Thermostable Serine ProteasesWirojne Kanoksilapatham, Weeranut IntagunKeratins are hard-degrading fibrous proteins, insoluble in water and organic solvents, often accumulated in nature and major components in feathers, skins, hair, horn, nail, hoof etc., Keratin-degrading microorganisms such as bacteria, archaea, actinomycetes and fungi employ keratinases to attack keratin. Keratinases belonging to subtilisin-like serine proteases were classified based on similarity of amino acid sequences. Keratinolytic thermophilic or hyperthermophilic bacteria … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 11 · 10 Nov 2017 · 9,981 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Putative Serine protease from Larval Midgut of Red Palm Weevil Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Olivier) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae): Partial Purification and Biochemical CharacterizationAhmed Al Jabr, Mahmoud Abo-El-SaadA putative serine protease was isolated and partially purified from larval midgut of red palm weevil (RPW), Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Olivier) using anion exchange chromatography, DE-52. Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) of this protease showed that the major band has a molecular weight of approximately 24 kDa corresponding to the same molecular weight of mammalian trypsin. In addition, zymography … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,018 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPurification of Chymotrypsin-Trypsin Inhibitor from Winged Bean Seeds using Single Step Immunoaffinity ColumnSanhita Roy, Samir Kumar DuttaProblem statement: Winged bean is a rich source of protease inhibitors. The seeds of winged bean contain several serine protease inhibitors of which winged bean chymotrypsin-trypsin inhibitor (WbCTI) is of significant importance due to its dual inhibition of both chymotrypsin and trypsin. The purification of WbCTI has always been difficult and a time taking process that involved large number of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,095 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsIdentification and functional characterization of a novel lysine-rich protein from Entamoeba histolyticaAlka Mehra, Sudha Bhattacharya, Alok BhattacharyaIn an attempt to understand the role of genes with no known function, in the protozoan parasite Entamoeba histolytica, an analysis of the proteome was carried out and a Lysine-Rich protein (KRP) was identified for further study. This protein has a modular structure with four domains and was found to be expressed and localized to the cell surface of E. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,707 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Assessment of Meat Quality Characteristics of Cattle Depending on Breed, Age and Growing Conditions in the Republic of KazakhstanGulzat Oraz, Asan Ospanov, Urishbay Chomanov et al.The results of meat productivity of young cattle of beef breeds (Auliekol, Kazakh Whitehead, Galloway, Hereford) depending on the breed, sex, and age (young bulls, steers-calves, heifers, first-calf cows, adult cattle-cows, bulls, calves) grown in the Western Region of the Republic of Kazakhstan during winter, turning winter (pre-spring), early spring and spring periods are given. The animals were divided into … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 19 May 2022 · 6,940 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNeuronal Functions of Protein Phosphatase 2AHung-Tat Leung, Ning WangReversible protein phosphorylation is a common and important form of protein posttranslational modification which determines the proteins’ activities, substrate specificity and inhibitions or degradations, depending on the specific amino acid residue, or combination of residues, being targeted. While protein phosphorylations by kinases have been well studied, the importance of protein dephosphorylation by phosphatases has emerged over the past two decades … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 1 Apr 2014 · 7,777 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExtraction and Purification of Collagenase Enzymes: A Critical ReviewSaid M Daboor, Suzanne M Budge, Abdel E Ghaly et al.Problem statement: Enzymes have vital roles in several industrial processes (foods, cosmetics, nutraceuticals and pharmaceuticals) due to their highly selective nature and high activity at very low concentrations. Recent efforts to identify new sources of useful enzymes have been concentrated on the marine environment because of the potential to make use of processing wastes. About 35-50% of the mass of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2010 · 14,311 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Proteomics Analysis of Drought Stress-Responsive Proteins as Biomarker for Drought-Tolerant Sugarcane CultivarsNisachon Jangpromma, Supansa Kitthaisong, Khomsorn Lomthaisong et al.Problem statement: The prime objective in breeding selection process of drought-tolerant sugarcane is to identify the correlating marker, which could lead to rapid screening for drought-tolerant cultivars. In this study, we have reported an unknown 18-kDa protein (p18) along with other stress-inducible proteins to be highly expressed in sugarcane leaves under drought stress condition. Approach: The 2D-PAGE patterns of proteins … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,814 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization and Wash Performance Analysis of Microbial Extracellular Enzymes from East Calcutta Wetland in IndiaRamesh Malathu, Sanhita Chowdhury, Madhusmita Mishra et al.Extracellular protease from a novel bacterial isolate showing maximum similarity of 98.22% with Microbacterium luteolum was obtained from East Calcutta Wetland, India. It showed compatibility with commercial detergents. The enzyme retains more than 60% of its activity between 6.0 to 10.5 pH. The maximum activity is at pH 7.5 with 71% activity at pH 10.0 and 10.5. The protease retained … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 8,727 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Proteolytic System of Candida dubliniensisLoaiza-Loeza Salomé, Parra-Ortega Berenice, Bautista-Muñoz Consuelo et al.Proteases of Candida dubliniensis have been scarcely studied, these enzymes may play an important role in nitrogen metabolism, post-translational processing, nutritional stress, dimorphism, virulence, etc. In this work, we report the presence of five different intracellular proteases and one extracellular proteolytic activity. The intracellular proteases are: aminopeptidase ycdAPE, carboxypeptidase ycdCP, dipeptidyl aminopeptidase ycdDAP, proteinases ycdPrA and ycdPrB, and extracellular protease … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,953 accessesView PDFCite
