Abstract:
AbstractThe digestive proteinases of three important pests of canola, Brassica napus L. and B. rapa L., in western Canada were characterized by assessing the proteolytic activity of homogenates of their midguts against azocasein or azoalbumin at various pH levels and in the presence of diagnostic proteinase inhibitors. The midgut of larvae of the bertha armyworm, Mamestra configurata Wlk., had maximum proteolytic activity at pH 10.5 which was inhibited 45–60% by serine proteinase inhibitors such as the soybean trypsin inhibitor.

Abstract:
The local balance between proteinase inhibitors and proteinases determines local proteolytic activity. Various studies have demonstrated the importance of serine proteinase inhibitors in regulating the activity of serine proteinases that are released by leucocytes during inflammation. Recently it has been shown that these inhibitors may also display functions that are distinct from those associated with the inhibition of leucocyte-derived proteinases. In this review the results of selected studies focusing on three inhibitors of neutrophil elastase, i.e. α1-proteinase inhibitor, secretory leuc

Abstract:
Abstract Various types of proteinases are implicated in the malignant progression of human and animal tumors. Proteinase inhibitors may therefore be useful as therapeutic agents in antiinvasive and antimetastatic treatment. The aims of this study were (1) to estimate the relative importance of proteinases in B16 cell invasion in vitro using synthetic, classspecific proteinase inhibitors and (2) to assess the inhibitory effect of some naturally occurring cysteine proteinase inhibitors.

Abstract:
Exogenous proteinase inhibitors are valuable and economically interesting protective biotechnological tools. We examined whether small proteinase inhibitors when fused to a selected target protein can protect the target from proteolytic degradation without simultaneously affecting the function and activity of the target domain. Two proteinase inhibitors were studied: a Kazal-type silk proteinase inhibitor (SPI2) from Galleria mellonella, and the Cucurbita maxima trypsin inhibitor I (CMTI I). Both inhibitors target serine proteinases, are small proteins with a compact structure stabilized by a

Abstract:
Serine proteinases and their natural protein inhibitors belong to the most intensively studied models of protein-protein recognition. Protein inhibitors do not form a single group but can be divided into about 20 different families. Global structures of proteins representing different inhibitor families are completely different and comprise alpha-helical proteins, beta-sheet proteins, alpha/beta-proteins and different folds of small disulfide-rich proteins. Three different types of inhibitors can be distinguished: canonical (standard mechanism) inhibitors, non-canonical inhibitors, and serpins

No proteinase activity was detected with rings. Trophozoites had a 28 kD proteinase that was inhibited by inhibitors of cysteine proteinases.

However, under non-reducing conditions, hydrolysis of casein and synthetic serine proteinase substrates was optimal in alkaline buffer.

Abstract:
Serine proteases are known to perform a wide range of functions essential to life; however there has to be some form of control mechanism in place. One of the many control mechanisms is their specific inhibition by protein proteinase inhibitors. Proteinase inhibitors in plants, present in their seeds, participate in defense mechanisms and their production is induced by herbivory or wounding. Plant proteinase inhibitors have been reported to inhibit a variety of serine proteinases, including enzymes of the blood coagulation cascade.

Abstract:
The major serine proteinase inhibitors Kunitz and Bowman-Birk-type trypsin are key anti-nutrients responsible for the low nutritional value of raw soy cake, the by product of oil expression from soybean. Traditionally, proteinase inhibitors are eliminated from soy cake through intensive heating, which is highly costly. The long term goal is to generate soybean seeds devoid of trypsin inhibitors through tissue culture and genetic modification of soybean. The RNAi technology has been selected in this study as a technique for down-regulation or silencing these two major serine trypsin inhibitors.

The intriguing finding that functions of t-PA coincide with structural domains and that these domains occur in related proteins, has been the basis to construct hybrid proteins by artificial exon shuffling to prove the conservation of functions in the shuffled domains. The heavy chain (Hch) of t-PA mediates both binding to fibrin and stimulation of plasminogen activator activity via its Finger- and Kringle-2 domain, whereas the light chain (Lch) contains the serine protease moiety of the protein. The Hch of u-PA is very homologous to the Lch of t-PA, but exhibits a higher plasminogen activator
