    • Action of Bauhinia bauhinioides synthetic peptides on serine proteinases 

      Cagliari, C. I.; De Caroli, F. P.; Nakahata, A. M.; Araujo, M. S.; Nakaie, C. R.; Sampaio, M. U.; Sampaio, CAM; Oliva, MLV (Elsevier B.V., 2003-11-07)
      The kallikrein inhibitor found in Bauhinia bauhinioides seeds (BbKI) differs from classical Kunitz plant inhibitors in the lack of disulfide bridges in its structure [Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1477 (2000) 64-74]. in this ...

    • Primary sequence determination of a Kunitz inhibitor isolated from Delonix regia seeds 

      Pando, S. C.; Oliva, MLV; Sampaio, CAM; Di Ciero, L.; Novello, J. C.; Marangoni, S. (Elsevier B.V., 2001-07-01)
      A serine proteinase inhibitor was purified from Delonix regia seeds a Leguminosae tree of the Caesalpinioideae subfamily. the inhibitor named DrTI, inactivated trypsin and human plasma kallikrein with K-i values 2.19x10(-8) ...

    • Purification and partial characterization of kininogenase activity from Schistosoma mansoni adult worms 

      Carvalho, W. S.; Lopes, C. T.; Juliano, L.; Coelho, PMZ; Cunha-Melo, JR; Beraldo, W. T.; Pesquero, J. L. (Cambridge Univ Press, 1998-10-01)
      An enzyme presenting kallikrein-like activity (designated sK1) was purified from the supernatant of Schistosoma mansoni adult worm homogenate. the enzyme cleaves bradykinin from purified rat plasma kininogen. Activity was ...

    • Purification and preliminary characterization of a plasma kallikrein inhibitor isolated from sea hares Aplysia dactylomela Rang, 1828 

      Gonzalez, Y.; Araujo, M. S.; Oliva, MLV; Sampaio, CAM; Chavez, M. A. (Elsevier B.V., 2004-02-01)
      An inhibitor active against pancreatic trypsin was found in the crude extract from the sea hares Aplysia dactylomela Rang, 1828. A stronger inhibitory activity against human plasma kallikrein was detectable after treating ...

    • Trypanosoma cruzi heparin-binding proteins present a flagellar membrane localization and serine proteinase activity 

      Oliveira-, F. O. R.; Alves, C. R.; Silva, F. S.; Cortes, L. M. C.; Toma, L. [UNIFESP]; Boucas, R. I. [UNIFESP]; Aguilar, T. [UNIFESP]; Nader, H. B. [UNIFESP]; Pereira, M. C. S. (Cambridge Univ Press, 2013-02-01)
      Heparin-binding proteins (HBPs) play a key role in Trypanosoma cruzi-host cell interactions. HBPs recognize heparan sulfate (HS) at the host cell surface and are able to induce the cytoadherence and invasion of this parasite. ...
