Abstract: Herbivorous insects have more difficulty obtaining proteins from their food than do predators and parasites. The scarcity of proteins in their diet requires herbivores to feed voraciously, thus heavily damaging their host plants. Plants respond… read more here.

Abstract: In this study the potential targeted use of zinc to inactivate proteinase inhibitors (PI) has been investigated as an alternative to the widely applied heat treatment used industrially for inactivation of PI. Zinc was utilized… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jmb.2018.12.003
Abstract: Reversible serine proteinase inhibitors comprise 18 unrelated families. Each family has a distinct representative structure but contains a surface loop that adopts the same, canonical conformation in the enzyme-inhibitor complex. The Laskowski mechanism universally applies… read more here.
