A cystatin α-sensitive cysteine proteinase that plays an important role in the lysosomal inactivation and degradation of L-lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was purified by column chromatography from an ammonium sulfate precipitate of lysosome extract prepared from rat livers. It was eluted with marked delay from cathepsins B and H in a Sephacryl S-200 column by its specific interaction with the gel, and then effectively separated from cathepsins B and H and other proteins. It was eluted with 0.5 M…

Molecular characterization of a cathepsin L1 highly expressed in phagocytes of pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas

Scale of autophagy estimated through lysosomal accumulation of L-lactate dehydrogenase in the liver of leupeptin-treated starved or refed rats

The scale of autophagy in the liver of starved or refed rats was estimated by measuring the rate at which L-lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) accumulated in lysosomes after injecting a cysteine proteinase inhibitor, leupeptin, in vivo.

Bacterial Interference With Lactate Dehydrogenase Assay Leads to an Underestimation of Cytotoxicity

It is shown that LDH activity is affected by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, and Streptococcus pneumoniae and that this depends on the density of the start inoculum and the duration of infection.

Cathepsin L Regulates Metabolic Networks Controlling Rapid Cell Growth and Proliferation

It is proposed that Cts L regulates this metabolic circuit to keep cell division under control, suggesting the therapeutic potential of targeting this protein and its networks in cancer.

The Transmission of SARS-CoV-2 Infection on the Ocular Surface and Prevention Strategies

The review suggests the ocular surface as a potential route for SARS-CoV-2 transmission, and as a result of this study the authors strongly recommend the protection of the eyes for ophthalmologists and patients at risk.

Involvement of a cystatin-alpha-sensitive cysteine proteinase in the degradation of native L-lactate dehydrogenase and serum albumin by rat liver or kidney lysosomes.

It is concluded that a cystatin-alpha-sensitive cysteine proteinase, other than cathepsins B, H, L and J, is present in lysosomes and functions in the lysOSomal degradation of at least native L-lactate dehydrogenase and serum albumin.

It was concluded that a role of a cystatin α-sensitive cysteine proteinase is critical in the lysosomal degradation of native LDH, but not in that of acid-denatured form.

Purification and properties of a new cathepsin from rat liver.

A lysosomal protease, a new cathepsin that inactivates glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, was purified about 2,200-fold from crude extracts of rat liver by cell-fractionation, freezing and thawing, acetone treatment, gel filtration, and DEAE SephadeX and CM-Sephadex column chromatographies.

Purification and characterization of cathepsin J from rat liver.

Cathepsin J showed strong affinity for synthetic substrates such as N-benzyloxycarbonyl-phenylalanyl-arginine 4-methyl-coumaryl-7-amide and glycyl-argInine beta-naphthylamide and antiserum against rat liver cathepsins B and L reacted with rat livercathepsIn J, suggesting that cathePSin J is identical with cat hepsin C.

Cathepsin K: a cysteine protease with unique kinin-degrading properties.

The present data support the notion that cathepsin K may act as a kininase, a unique property among mammalian cysteine proteases, as well as vasoactive properties of kinins and the potency of cathePSin K to modulate BK-dependent contraction of smooth muscles.

Effects of selective inhibition of cathepsin B and general inhibition of cysteine proteinases on lysosomal proteolysis in rat liver in vivo and in vitro.

Results shows that E- 64-sensitive cysteine proteinases are important in lysosomal protein degradation, but cathepsin B has only a role in part and that an E-64-resistant proteinase(s) may also be important.

Nonselective autophagy of cytosolic enzymes by isolated rat hepatocytes

The experiments suggest that sequestration and degradation of normal cytosolic proteins by the autophagic-lysosomal pathway is a nonselective bulk process, and that nonautophagic mechanisms must be invoked to account for differential enzyme turnover.

Oligomeric Structure and Substrate Induced Inhibition of Human Cathepsin C (*)

Human cathepsin C appears to differ qualitatively from other cysteine proteinases of different origin, explained by a sequential cooperative interaction model, where an enzyme molecule can bind up to four substrate molecules but where only the binary enzyme-substrate complex is catalytically active.
