My utmost gratitude goes to my mentor, Associate Professor George Yip Wai Cheong, for his unfailing guidance, patience and trust in me. Through him, I have learnt much, in terms of scientific skills and knowledge acquisition. In addition, I have benefitted from his many interesting stories that have also made my candidature a very enjoyable one indeed. The most important lesson that I have learnt from Dr George Yip would be the importance of thinking critically, a skill that is not only important in the scientific arena, but also one that applies to our everyday life. I would also like to thank my co-supervisor, Associate Professor Chia Sing Joo, for his support and advice. His comments have always added an interesting clinical perspective to the type of scientific research that I have been working on during my candidature. My deepest appreciation goes to Professor Bay Boon Huat for his timely advice and support. Professor Bay never fails to think for our welfare and has always shown genuine concern for us in all aspects of our life. He has taught us the importance of forming great relationships, one that supersedes any material wealth and status.

Received: 24 October 2020; Accepted: 14 November 2020; Published: 18 November 2020 Abstract: Metallocarboxypeptidase Z (CPZ) is a secreted enzyme that is distinguished from all other members of the M14 metallocarboxypeptidase family by the presence of an N-terminal cysteine-rich Frizzled-like (Fz) domain that binds Wnt proteins. Here, we present a comprehensive analysis of the enzymatic properties and substrate specificity of human CPZ. To investigate the enzymatic properties, we employed dansylated peptide substrates. For substrate specificity profiling, we generated two different large peptide libraries and employed isotopic labeling and quantitative mass spectrometry to study the substrate preference of this enzyme. Our findings revealed that CPZ has a strict requirement for substrates with C-terminal Arg or Lys at the P10 position.

A Genomic Analysis of Rat Proteases and Protease Inhibitors
A genomic analysis of rat proteases and protease inhibitors Xose S. Puente and Carlos López-Otín Departamento de Bioquímica y Biología Molecular, Facultad de Medicina, Instituto Universitario de Oncología, Universidad de Oviedo, 33006-Oviedo, Spain Send correspondence to: Carlos López-Otín Departamento de Bioquímica y Biología Molecular Facultad de Medicina, Universidad de Oviedo 33006 Oviedo-SPAIN Tel. 34-985-104201; Fax: 34-985-103564 E-mail: [email protected] Proteases perform fundamental roles in multiple biological processes and are associated with a growing number of pathological conditions that involve abnormal or deficient functions of these enzymes. The availability of the rat genome sequence has opened the possibility to perform a global analysis of the complete protease repertoire or degradome of this model organism. The rat degradome consists of at least 626 proteases and homologs, which are distributed into five catalytic classes: 24 aspartic, 160 cysteine, 192 metallo, 221 serine, and 29 threonine proteases. Overall, this distribution is similar to that of the mouse degradome, but significatively more complex than that corresponding to the human degradome composed of 561 proteases and homologs. This increased complexity of the rat protease complement mainly derives from the expansion of several gene families including placental cathepsins, testases, kallikreins and hematopoietic serine proteases, involved in reproductive or immunological functions. These protease families have also evolved differently in the rat and mouse genomes and may contribute to explain some functional differences between these two closely related species. Likewise, genomic analysis of rat protease inhibitors has shown some differences with the mouse protease inhibitor complement and the marked expansion of families of cysteine and serine protease inhibitors in rat and mouse with respect to human.

Human spectrometry. The 67-residue amino acid sequence of ACI showed A/B-type funnelins include the digestive enzymes CPA1, CPA2, no significant homology with any known protein.
