DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2018.07.043
Abstract: Acid proteases from sábalo stomach mucosa were recovered using salting-out procedure. This single step produced an enzyme extract purified 1.8-fold over the crude extract with a recovery of 45.1% of its initial proteolytic activity. Sábalo… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jxb/erz034
Abstract: Members of the pepsin-like family (A1) of aspartic proteases (APs) are widely distributed in plants. A large number of genes encoding putative A1 APs are found in different plant genomes, the vast majority of which… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jipb.13447
Abstract: During the double fertilization process of flowering plants (angiosperms), pollen tubes transport a pair of immobile sperm cells towards and inside the embryo sac for fusion with egg and central cell, respectively. Male-female gamete interactions… read more here.

Cocaprins, β-Trefoil Fold Inhibitors of Cysteine and Aspartic Proteases from Coprinopsis cinerea
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "International Journal of Molecular Sciences"
DOI: 10.3390/ijms23094916
Abstract: We introduce a new family of fungal protease inhibitors with β-trefoil fold from the mushroom Coprinopsis cinerea, named cocaprins, which inhibit both cysteine and aspartic proteases. Two cocaprin-encoding genes are differentially expressed in fungal tissues.… read more here.

Genome-Wide Analyses of Aspartic Proteases on Potato Genome (Solanum tuberosum): Generating New Tools to Improve the Resistance of Plants to Abiotic Stress
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Plants"
DOI: 10.3390/plants11040544
Abstract: Aspartic proteases are proteolytic enzymes widely distributed in living organisms and viruses. Although they have been extensively studied in many plant species, they are poorly described in potatoes. The present study aimed to identify and… read more here.
