Bee venom contains a variety of peptides and enzymes, including serine proteases. While the presence proteases in bee has been demonstrated, role these proteins not elucidated. Furthermore, there is currently no information available regarding melanization response or fibrin(ogen)olytic activity protease, molecular mechanism its action remains unknown. Here we show that protease (Bi-VSP) multifunctional enzyme. In insects, Bi-VSP acts as an arthropod prophenoloxidase (proPO)-activating...
Kunitz-type serine protease inhibitors are involved in various physiological processes, such as ion channel blocking, blood coagulation, fibrinolysis, and inflammation. While spider-derived proteins show activity trypsin or chymotrypsin inhibition K+ no additional role for these has been elucidated. In this study, we identified the first spider (Araneus ventricosus) inhibitor (AvKTI) that acts a plasmin an elastase inhibitor. AvKTI possesses Kunitz domain consisting of 57-amino-acid mature...
Bee venom is a rich source of pharmacologically active substances. In this study, we identified bumblebee (Bombus ignitus) Kunitz-type serine protease inhibitor (Bi-KTI) that acts as plasmin inhibitor. Bi-KTI showed no detectable inhibitory effect on factor Xa, thrombin, or tissue plasminogen activator. contrast, strongly inhibited plasmin, indicating it an antifibrinolytic agent; however, ability was two-fold weaker than aprotinin. The fibrin(ogen)olytic activities B. ignitus (Bi-VSP) and...
갈색거저리의 산업 활용도가 높아짐에 따라, 효율적인 실내 대량사육 시스템의 확립이 더욱 중요하게 인식되고 있다. 본 연구는 대량사육을 위해 다양한 범위의 온도, 광주기, 사육밀도에서 생리적 특성을 알아보고자 수행되었다. 갈색거저리 알은 <TEX>$17.5{\sim}27.5^{\circ}C$</TEX>에서 70% 이상의 부화율을 나타냈고, 부화기간은 <TEX>$25{\sim}35^{\circ}C$</TEX>에서 5~7 일로 조사되었다. 결과적으로, 부화율과 산란 전 기간(egg periods)을 고려했을 때, 적절한 실내온도는 <TEX>$25{\sim}27.5^{\circ}C$</TEX>였다. 온도 조건하에서 시스템에서 유충의 발육기간은 개별사육 보다 더 짧았다. 번데기 무게는 <TEX>$20^{\circ}C$</TEX>와 <TEX>$25^{\circ}C$</TEX>를 제외한 좀 높게 관찰되었다. 수요 탄력성과 생산중량을 가장 효과적인 조건은...
Abstract Background Field cricket ( Gryllus bimaculatus ) is newly emerged as an edible insect in several countries. Anti-inflammatory effect of glycosaminoglycan derived from this on chronic disease animal model such diabetic mouse has not been fully investigated yet. Thus, the objective study was to determine anti-oxidative mouse. Methods To discover potential therapeutic agents, field (GbG) tested present study. Its activities mice were determined based its abilities reduce glucose, ALT,...
