Endoplasmic stress-inducing variants in CPB1 and CPA1 and risk of pancreatic cancer: A case-control study and meta-analysis.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): International journal of cancer [Int J Cancer] 2022 Apr 01; Vol. 150 (7), pp. 1123-1133. Date of Electronic Publication: 2021 Dec 06.
Abstract: Gene variants that encode pancreatic enzymes with impaired secretion can induce pancreatic acinar endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, cellular injury and pancreatitis. The role of such variants in pancreatic cancer risk has received little attention. We...
Structure of Aedes aegypti carboxypeptidase B1-inhibitor complex uncover the disparity between mosquito and non-mosquito insect carboxypeptidase inhibition mechanism.

Abstract: Metallocarboxypeptidases (MCPs) in the mosquito midgut play crucial roles in infection, as well as in mosquito dietary digestion, reproduction, and development. MCPs are also part of the digestive system of plant-feeding insects, representing key targe...
Structure of Aedes aegypti procarboxypeptidase B1 and its binding with Dengue virus for controlling infection.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Life science alliance [Life Sci Alliance] 2021 Nov 08; Vol. 5 (1). Date of Electronic Publication: 2021 Nov 08 (Print Publication: 2022).
Abstract: Metallocarboxypeptidases play critical roles in the development of mosquitoes and influence pathogen/parasite infection of the mosquito midgut. Here, we report the crystal structure of Aedes aegypti procarboxypeptidase B1 (PCPBAe1), characterized its s...
Malaria Box Compounds against Anopheles gambiae (Diptera: Culicidae) Carboxypeptidase B Activity to Block Malaria Transmission.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Journal of medical entomology [J Med Entomol] 2022 Jul 13; Vol. 59 (4), pp. 1355-1362.
Abstract: Carboxypeptidase B (CPB) plays an important role in blood digestion in mosquitos, aiding the release of free amino acids. Anopheles CPB is a target to block malaria transmission because it facilitates Plasmodium invasion of the mosquito midgut. Our stu...
Antibody charge variant modulation by in vitro enzymatic treatment in different Chinese hamster ovary cell cultures.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Biotechnology progress [Biotechnol Prog] 2022 Sep; Vol. 38 (5), pp. e3268. Date of Electronic Publication: 2022 May 24.
Abstract: Charge variants represent a critical quality attribute that must be controlled during the development and manufacturing of monoclonal antibodies (mAb). Previously, we reported the development of a cost-effective enzymatic treatment capable of removing ...
Limited proteolysis by a prostatic endopeptidase, the sperm-activating factor initiatorin, regulates the activation of pro-carboxypeptidase B in the seminal fluid of the silkworm, Bombyx mori.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Insect biochemistry and molecular biology [Insect Biochem Mol Biol] 2022 Sep; Vol. 148, pp. 103819. Date of Electronic Publication: 2022 Aug 11.
Abstract: A prostate trypsin-like serine endopeptidase called initiatorin (BmIni) is an essential factor in triggering the sperm maturation response of the silkworm, Bombyx mori. BmIni has been predicted to specifically cleave the carboxyl side of two consecutiv...
Molecular characterization of carboxypeptidase B-like (CPB) in Scylla paramamosain and its role in white spot syndrome virus and Vibrio alginolyticus infection.
