Insight into the dimer dissociation process of the Chromobacterium violaceum (S)-selective amine transaminase

One of the main factors hampering the implementation in industry of transaminase-based processes for the synthesis of enantiopure amines is their often low storage and operational stability. Our still limited understanding of the inactivation processes undermining the stability of wild-type transaminases represents an obstacle to improving their stability through enzyme engineering. In this paper

Structure-based design and in vivo anti-arthritic activity evaluation of a potent dipeptidyl cyclopropyl nitrile inhibitor of cathepsin C

Cathepsin C (CatC)is a dipeptidyl-exopeptidase which activates neutrophil serine protease precursors (elastase, proteinase 3, cathepsin G and NSP4)by removing their N-terminal propeptide in bone marrow cells at the promyelocytic stage of neutrophil differentiation. The resulting active proteases are implicated in chronic inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Hence, inhibition of CatC represents a
