Protease 2A (2Apro) of coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) plays a major role in viral replication. In case of infection, viral proteins are being synthesized from viral mRNA using host biosynthesis machinery. 2Apro of virus, after being synthesized, exhibits two critical functions, cleavage of viral proteins and breaking eukaryotic initiation factor 4G. The enzyme plays an essential role in viral replic...

The toxicity of Bacillus thuringiensis Cyt1Aa protein to sheep blowfly larvae depends on its solubilization and proteolytic activation. Cyt1Aa crystals were not toxic. Full-length and trypsin-digested Cyt1Aa proteins were toxic to larvae of three species of sheep blowfly. Neither full-length nor trypsin-digested Cyt2A soluble crystal proteins were toxic.

Introduction: Vaccine studies against Pseudomonas aeruginosa have often focused on outer membrane proteins (OPRs) due to their potent stimulation of the immune response. Using major outer membrane proteins of cell walls (mOMPs) of P. aeruginosa and other Gram-negative bacteria actively stimulate the immune system without any toxic side effects. Moreover, these antigens show immunological cross-...
