The substrate specificity of human pancreatic elastase 2 was investigated by using a series of peptide p-nitroanilides. The kinetic constants, kcat and Km, for the hydrolysis of these peptides revealed that this serine protease preferentially hydrolyzes peptides containing P1 amino

The Cry1Ac protein is the most active insecticidal toxin from the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) to members of the heliothinae subfamily in Lepidoptera, which includes some of the most devastating pests of corn and cotton worldwide. However, there are wide
Factors that underlie the clustering of metabolic syndrome traits are not fully known. We performed whole-exome sequence analysis in kindreds with extreme phenotypes of early-onset atherosclerosis and metabolic syndrome, and identified novel loss-of-function mutations in the gene encoding the pancreatic

To establish successful infections, endoparasitoid wasps must develop strategies to evade immune responses of the host. Here, we identified and characterized a teratocytes-expressed gene encoding a trypsin inhibitor-like protein containing a cysteine-rich domain from Cotesia vestalis, CvT-TIL. CvT-TIL had a
