The genus Oithona is described as having the highest numerical 16 density, as the most cosmopolite copepod and iteroparous. The Oithona male paradox obliges 17 it to alternate feeding (immobile) and mating (mobile) phases. -

Plant Protease Inhibitors: a Defense Strategy in Plants
Biotechnology and Molecular Biology Review Vol. 2 (3), pp. 068-085, August 2007 Available online at http://www.academicjournals.org/BMBR ISSN 1538-2273 © 2007 Academic Journals Standard Review Plant protease inhibitors: a defense strategy in plants Huma Habib and Khalid Majid Fazili* Department of Biotechnology, The University of Kashmir, P/O Naseembagh, Hazratbal, Srinagar -190006, Jammu and Kashmir, India. Accepted 7 July, 2007 Proteases, though essentially indispensable to the maintenance and survival of their host organisms, can be potentially damaging when overexpressed or present in higher concentrations, and their activities need to be correctly regulated. An important means of regulation involves modulation of their activities through interaction with substances, mostly proteins, called protease inhibitors. Some insects and many of the phytopathogenic microorganisms secrete extracellular enzymes and, in particular, enzymes causing proteolytic digestion of proteins, which play important roles in pathogenesis. Plants, however, have also developed mechanisms to fight these pathogenic organisms. One important line of defense that plants have to fight these pathogens is through various inhibitors that act against these proteolytic enzymes. These inhibitors are thus active in endogenous as well as exogenous defense systems. Protease inhibitors active against different mechanistic classes of proteases have been classified into different families on the basis of significant sequence similarities and structural relationships. Specific protease inhibitors are currently being overexpressed in certain transgenic plants to protect them against invaders. The current knowledge about plant protease inhibitors, their structure and their role in plant defense is briefly reviewed. Key words: Proteases, enzymes, protease inhibitors, serpins, cystatins, pathogens, defense. Table of content 1. -

Diabetes results from pancreatic inability to secrete the insulin needed to overcome this resistance. We analyzed the protein profile from the pancreas of ten-week old diabetic db/db and wild type mice through proteomics. Pancreatic proteins were separated in two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2D-PAGE) and significant changes in db/db mice respect to wild type mice were observed in 27 proteins. -
Effects of Glycosylation on the Enzymatic Activity and Mechanisms of Proteases
International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review Effects of Glycosylation on the Enzymatic Activity and Mechanisms of Proteases Peter Goettig Structural Biology Group, Faculty of Molecular Biology, University of Salzburg, Billrothstrasse 11, 5020 Salzburg, Austria; [email protected]; Tel.: +43-662-8044-7283; Fax: +43-662-8044-7209 Academic Editor: Cheorl-Ho Kim Received: 30 July 2016; Accepted: 10 November 2016; Published: 25 November 2016 Abstract: Posttranslational modifications are an important feature of most proteases in higher organisms, such as the conversion of inactive zymogens into active proteases. To date, little information is available on the role of glycosylation and functional implications for secreted proteases. Besides a stabilizing effect and protection against proteolysis, several proteases show a significant influence of glycosylation on the catalytic activity. Glycans can alter the substrate recognition, the specificity and binding affinity, as well as the turnover rates. However, there is currently no known general pattern, since glycosylation can have both stimulating and inhibiting effects on activity. Thus, a comparative analysis of individual cases with sufficient enzyme kinetic and structural data is a first approach to describe mechanistic principles that govern the effects of glycosylation on the function of proteases. The understanding of glycan functions becomes highly significant in proteomic and glycomic studies, which demonstrated that cancer-associated proteases, such as kallikrein-related peptidase 3, exhibit strongly altered glycosylation patterns in pathological cases. Such findings can contribute to a variety of future biomedical applications. Keywords: secreted protease; sequon; N-glycosylation; O-glycosylation; core glycan; enzyme kinetics; substrate recognition; flexible loops; Michaelis constant; turnover number 1. -
