Plants and insects have coexisted for million years and evolved a set of interactions which affect both organisms at different levels. Plants have developed various morphological and biochemical adaptations to cope with herbivores attacks. However, Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae)
L-Pyroglutamyl-L-phenylalanyl-L-leucine-p-nitroanilide (PFLNA)--a convenient chromogenic substrate for assay of thiol proteinases papain, ficin, and bromelain--was prepared by enzymatic synthesis with chymotrypsin as a catalyst. The thiol proteinases hydrolyze PFLNA with the liberation of p-nitroaniline, estimated spectrophotometrically by its absorbance at 410

The house dust mite (HDM) Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus is an important risk factor for asthma and rhinitis. Allergen specific immunotherapy that is based on recombinant proteins has been proposed for the safer and more efficient treatment of allergic diseases. The aim
Enzymes play a key role in insect-plant relationships. For a better understanding of these interactions, we analyzed Tuta absoluta digestive enzymes. Here, we describe a detailed protocol for the detection of trypsin and papain-like enzymes in Tuta absoluta larvae by
Uncover properties and applications of the cysteine protease papain and find inhibitors, substrates, and other papain products.
