1. Co-production of Proteases and Bioactive Protein Hydrolysates from Bioprocessing of Feather Meal
Abstract: Feather meal conversion through submerged cultivations with Bacillus strains (CL33A, CL14) yielded proteases and protein hydrolysates. After 4-day (CL33A) and 10-day (CL14) cultivations, protease activities reached 461 U/mL; hydrolysates presented antioxidant (radicals-scavenging, 57-77%; Fe2+-chelation, 14-28%; Fe3+-reduction) and antidiabetic (di

2. Ação do inibidor da enzima dipeptidil peptidase 4 sobre o pré-condicionamento isquêmico em pacientes portadores de diabetes mellitus tipo 2 e doença arterial coronariana estável / Effect of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 enzyme inhibitor on ischemic preconditioning in patients with type 2 diabetes and symptomatic coronary artery disease
Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) refers to the phenomenon in which short periods of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion promote resistance to a subsequent prolonged ischemic insult. Some hypoglycemic drugs, such as glibenclamide and repaglinide, are able to inhibit this protective phenomenon probably by its effects as blockers of adenosine triphosphate-depende

3. Transcriptoma da glândula venenífera da serpente Bothrops alternatus (urutu) e caracterização molecular e bioquímica parcial da dipeptidilpeptidase IV / Venom gland transcriptomic of the snake Bothrops alternatus (urutu) and partial molecular and biochemical characterization of the dipeptidyl peptidase IV
O estudo do transcriptoma de bibliotecas de cDNA da glândula venenífera de serpentes, realizado a partir da análise de ESTs (expressed sequence tags), tem se mostrado útil na identificação de genes expressos neste tecido, inclusive no gênero Bothrops, responsável pela maioria dos acidentes ofídicos no Brasil. Neste trabalho utilizamos uma abordagem

4. Efeito de frações peptídicas do veneno da serpente Bothrops jararaca (Serpentes, Viperidae: Crotalinae) sobre a atividade enzimática dipeptidil-peptidase IV (DPP-IV) e sobre o receptor (GLP-1R) do peptídeo glucagon-símile tipo 1 (GLP-1). / Effect of peptide fractions from Bothrops jararaca (Serpentes, Viperidae: Crotalinae) venom on dipeptidyl-peptidase IV (DPP-IV) enzyme activity and glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor (GLP-1R).
Novos agentes terapêuticos que preservem as células β do pâncreas e o controle do peso são importantes para o diabetes melittus tipo 2 (DM-2), constituindo uma importante área de investimento farmacêutico. Com o objetivo de contribuir com a toxinologia comparada de venenos de répteis e com a eventual descoberta de novos agentes

5. The rattlesnake Crotalus durissus terrificus (Viperidae: Crotalinae) as an experimental model to study the involvement of peptidases in the survival of spermatozoids / A cascavel Crotalus durissus terrificus (Viperidae: Crotalinae) como modelo experimental para o estudo do envolvimento de peptidases na sobrevida de espermatozóides
In the rattlesnake Crotalus durissus terrificus occurs the long-term sperm storage (LTSS), in the female tract, during the interval between mating (autumn) and ovulation (spring). Peptides and peptidases are among the main components that influence the spermatic activity in mammals. The present study aimed to characterize the presence of peptidases in C. d.

6. Atividades e expressão de peptidases em ratos tratados cronicamente com L-NAME, um inibidor da biossintese de oxido nitrico, e em ratos espontaneamente hipertensos
Peptidases play an important role in modulating the activity of endogenous peptides in normal and pathological situations. In this work, we investigated the activity and expression of four peptidases (aminopeptidase M - APM, dipeptidyl peptidase IV - DPP IV, metalloendopeptidase 24.15 - MEP 24.15 and neutral endopeptidase 24.11 - NEP 24.11) in rat tissues (a

7. Dipeptidyl peptidase IV (CD26) activity in the hematopoietic system: differences between the membrane-anchored and the released enzyme activity
Dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV; CD26) (EC 3.4.14.5) is a membrane-anchored ectoenzyme with N-terminal exopeptidase activity that preferentially cleaves X-Pro-dipeptides. It can also be spontaneously released to act in the extracellular environment or associated with the extracellular matrix. Many hematopoietic cytokines and chemokines contain DPP-IV-suscept

8. Dipeptidyl-peptidase IV secreted by Aspergillus fumigatus, a fungus pathogenic to humans.
A dipeptidyl-peptidase IV was purified from the culture medium of the human-pathogenic fungus Aspergillus fumigatus. The enzyme has an apparent molecular mass of 95 kDa and contained approximately 10 kDa of N-linked carbohydrate. This glycoprotein is antigenic and has all characteristics of the class IV dipeptidyl-peptidases: removal of Xaa-Pro and to a less

9. Characterization of the Prolyl Dipeptidyl Peptidase Gene (dppIV) from the Koji Mold Aspergillus oryzae
The koji mold Aspergillus oryzae secretes a prolyl dipeptidyl peptidase (DPPIV) when the fungus is cultivated in a medium containing wheat gluten as the sole nitrogen and carbon source (MMWG). We cloned and sequenced the DPPIV gene from an A. oryzae library by using the A. fumigatus dppIV gene as a probe. Reverse transcriptase PCR experiments showed that the

10. Inhibition of dipeptidyl peptidase IV by fluoroolefin-containing N-peptidyl-O-hydroxylamine peptidomimetics
Dipeptidyl peptidase IV (EC 3.4.14.5; DPP IV), also known as the leukocyte differentiation antigen CD26 when found as an extracellular membrane-bound proline specific serine protease, cleaves a dipeptide from the N terminus of a polypeptide chain containing a proline residue in the penultimate position. Here we report that known (Z)-Ala-ψ[CF=C]-Pro dipeptid

11. Integration of transplanted hepatocytes into host liver plates demonstrated with dipeptidyl peptidase IV-deficient rats.
To analyze mechanisms of liver repopulation, we transplanted normal hepatocytes into syngeneic rats deficient in dipeptidyl peptidase IV activity. When isolated hepatocytes were injected into splenic pulp, cells promptly migrated into hepatic sinusoids. To examine whether transplanted hepatocytes entered liver plates and integrated with host hepatocytes, we

12. Emerging Family of Proline-Specific Peptidases of Porphyromonas gingivalis: Purification and Characterization of Serine Dipeptidyl Peptidase, a Structural and Functional Homologue of Mammalian Prolyl Dipeptidyl Peptidase IV
Porphyromonas gingivalis is an asaccharolytic and anaerobic bacterium that possesses a complex proteolytic system which is essential for its growth and evasion of host defense mechanisms. In this report, we show the purification and characterization of prolyl dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV) produced by this organism. The enzyme was purified to homogeneity, a
