1. Estudos físico-químicos e bioquímicos de uma proteína de 21 kDa do Trypanosoma cruzi / Physico-chemical and biochemical studies of a 21 kDa protein of Trypanosoma cruzi
A proteína P21 do Trypanosoma cruzi participa no processo de infecção da célula hospedeira, desse modo é de grande importância: elucidar as vias de sinalização induzidas pela proteína, bem como caracterizar a nível molecular e estrutural a P21. O que vai auxiliar no entendimento da função biológica da P21 e sua participação no processo de infe

2. Investigação dos mecanismos de ação do Amblyomin-X sobre a angiogênese in vivo induzida pelo VEGF / Investigation of mechanisms of action of Amblyomin-X on in vivo on VEGF-induced angiogenesis
Amblyomin-X é um inibidor de serinoprotease do tipo kunitz obtido de uma biblioteca de cDNA das glândulas salivares do carrapato Amblyomma cajannense. Dados preliminares mostraram que a injeção in vivo de Amblyomin-X reduziu a formação de massa tumoral induzida por células de melanoma B16F10 em camundongos. Com base neste dado e na ação de inibidore

3. Propriedades bioquímicas e cinético-enzimáticas de cisteíno- proteases do intestino médio da lagarta da soja / Biochemistry and kinectics-enzymatics properties of cysteine-proteases of the velvetbean caterpillar midgut
Protease inhibitors that react with insect specific proteases are candidates to have their genetic code inserted in genetically modified plants. The first step to achieve this is the characterization of proteolytic enzymes of these insects intestines. Cysteine-protease of the soluble and insoluble fractions from the midgut of Anticarsia gemmatalis were chara

4. Purification and investigation of the physical-chemical protease inhibitors properties from acacia plumosa lowe seeds. / Purificação e investigação de propriedades físico-químicas de inibidores de proteases extraídos das sementes de aácia plumosa Lowe.
Seeds of plants belonging to Leguminosae family are rich sources of protease inhibitors. The Acacia genus is one of the most important members of this group. In this work, novel protease inhibitors from Acacia plumose Lowe seeds have been described. From the saline extract of mature seeds, the inhibitors were purified by size exclusion chromatography on Supe

5. The crystal structures of severe acute respiratory syndrome virus main protease and its complex with an inhibitor
A newly identified severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV), is the etiological agent responsible for the outbreak of SARS. The SARS-CoV main protease, which is a 33.8-kDa protease (also called the 3C-like protease), plays a pivotal role in mediating viral replication and transcription functions through extensive proteolytic processing of two

6. Regulation of matrix metalloproteinase-9 and inhibition of tumor invasion by the membrane-anchored glycoprotein RECK
A human fibroblast cDNA expression library was screened for cDNA clones giving rise to flat colonies when transfected into v-Ki-ras-transformed NIH 3T3 cells. One such gene, RECK, encodes a membrane-anchored glycoprotein of about 110 kDa with multiple epidermal growth factor-like repeats and serine-protease inhibitor-like domains. While RECK mRNA is expresse

7. Acylation stabilizes a protease-resistant conformation of protoporphyrinogen oxidase, the molecular target of diphenyl ether-type herbicides
Protein acylation is an important way in which a number of proteins with a variety of functions are modified. The physiological role of the acylation of cellular proteins is still poorly understood. Covalent binding of fatty acids to nonintegral membrane proteins is thought to produce transient or permanent enhancement of the association of the polypeptide c

8. α1-Antitrypsin monotherapy prolongs islet allograft survival in mice
Islet transplantation for type 1 diabetic patients shows promising results with the use of nondiabetogenic immunosuppressive therapy. However, in addition to compromising the immune system of transplant recipients, long-term studies demonstrate that islet viability is impaired. Here, we demonstrate that, in the absence of immunosuppressive agents, monotherap
