In eubacteria and eukaryotic organelles N-terminal methionine excision requires the sequential action of two activities, a peptide deformylase (PDF), which systematically removes the N-formyl group present on all nascent polypeptides and me...
Longistatin is an unconventional serine protease and induces protective immunity against tick infestation [0.03%]
长刺蛋白是一种非常规丝氨酸蛋白酶 并可在蜱虫侵袭时诱导保护性免疫反应

Classical serine proteases use the conserved Ser/His/Asp catalytic triad to hydrolyze substrates. Here, we show that longistatin, a salivary gland protein with two EF-hand domains from the vector tick Haemaphysalis longicornis, does not hav...
Purification, molecular characterization and gene expression analysis of an aspartic protease (Sc-ASP113) from the nematode Steinernema carpocapsae during the parasitic stage [0.03%]

The rhomboid-like proteins constitute a large family of intramembrane serine proteases that are present in all branches of life. First studied in Drosophila, these enzymes catalyse the release of the active forms of proteins from the membra...
Comparative biochemical and functional properties of two leucine aminopeptidases of Clonorchis sinensis [0.03%]
中国肝吸虫两种亮氨酸氨基肽酶的生化及功能特性比较

Jung-Mi Kang et al.
Leucine aminopeptidases (LAP; EC 3.4.11.1) are a group of metalloexopeptidases, which catalyze the sequential removal of leucine amino acids from the N-termini of the polypeptides or proteins. In this study, we identified two novel genes th...
A GFP-actin reporter line to explore microfilament dynamics across the malaria parasite lifecycle [0.03%]
报告疟原虫生命周期中微丝动态的GFP-肌动蛋白系

Malaria parasite motility relies on an internal parasite actomyosin motor that, when linked to the host cell substrate, propels motile zoites forward. Despite their key role in this process, attempts to visualize actin microfilaments (F-act...
Trypanosoma brucei brucei oligopeptidase B null mutants display increased prolyl oligopeptidase-like activity [0.03%]
