1. Inhibition of Acetylcholinesterase by Coumarin-Linked Amino Acids Synthetized via Triazole Associated with Molecule Partition Coefficient
A previous study for the identification of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors demonstrated that the hybrid between tyrosol, the 1,2,3-triazole nucleus, and the coumarin group, namely 7-({1-[2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethyl]-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl}methoxy)-4-methyl-2H-chromen-2-one (10), has a high enzyme inhibitory activity. Here, we synthesized analogues of 10 v

2. Imobilização enzimática: conceito e efeitos na proteólise
In recent years, great advances have been observed in the proteomic area regarding the different approaches adopted as top-down, middle-down and bottom-up. Regarding middle-down and bottom-up approaches, a previous step for protein digestion is necessary for further analysis of the generated peptides. Classical digestion protocols employing proteases are usu

4. LIPIDS AS COMPETITIVE INHIBITORS OF SUBTILISIN CARLSBERG IN THE ENZYMATIC HYDROLYSIS OF PROTEINS IN RED TILAPIA (Oreochromis sp.) VISCERA: INSIGHTS FROM KINETIC MODELS AND A MOLECULAR DOCKING STUDY
Abstract Protein hydrolysis can improve food’s nutritional, techno-functional and biological properties, which can increase the possibilities of application in industry. The objective of this research article was to study the effect of lipids on the enzymatic kinetics of red tilapia viscera (RTV) hydrolysis with subtilisin Carlsberg. The RTV were hydrolyze

5. Lysine metabolism and amino acid profile in maize grains from plants subjected to cadmium exposure
ABSTRACT: In general, the effects of Cadmium (Cd) on crop quality are evaluated solely by Cd accumulation in the edible plant parts; thus, the potential effects on several nutritional features are not often taken into account. This study evaluated Cd effects on the enzymatic activities of lysine (Lys) metabolism, storage protein and amino acid profile in mai

7. Functionalized Dienes: A New Series of Potential Agents for the Treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease
We report a series of functionalized dienes as compounds of great potential in the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease due to their antioxidant activity and ability to inhibit the enzyme acetylcholinesterase. The dienes tested showed high enzymatic inhibition capacity and accentuated antioxidant activity, which are comparable to or higher than the standards t

8. Determination of the Antioxidant Capacity of Red Fruits by Miniaturized Spectrophotometry Assays
Natural sources with high antioxidant capacity represent an interesting potential to prevent or minimize the oxidative stress that causes many chronic diseases. The antioxidant capacity of red fruits (strawberry and cherry) was evaluated by miniaturized spectrophotometric methods 2,2’-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS), 2,2-diphenyl-1-

9. Enzymatic Properties and Ryegrass Resistance Mechanism to Iodosulfuron-Methyl-Sodium Herbicide
RESUMO: O azevém (Lolium multiflorum) é uma das espécies mais preocupantes em relação à resistência aos herbicidas. Este estudo objetivou caracterizar a atividade da enzima acetolactato sintase (ALS) de biótipos resistentes (NC e AR) e suscetível de azevém ao herbicida iodosulfurom-metílico sódio (iodosulfurom). Diferentes concentrações de piru

10. Purification and enzymatic characterization of a novel metalloprotease from Lachesis muta rhombeata snake venom
Abstract Background: Lachesis muta rhombeata (Lmr) is the largest venomous snake in Latin America and its venom contains mainly enzymatic components, such as serine and metalloproteases, L-amino acid oxidase and phospholipases A2. Metalloproteases comprise a large group of zinc-dependent proteases that cleave basement membrane components such as fibronectin

11. Investigations of Acacia modesta Wall. leaves for in vitro anti-diabetic, proliferative and cytotoxic effects
ABSTRACT The leaves of Acacia modesta Wall. have been shown to possess diverse pharmacological properties. Therefore, we aimed at evaluating anti-diabetic, cytotoxic and proliferative effects of extracts of Acacia modesta Wall. leaves. After evaluating the primary and secondary metabolites, anti-diabetic activity of various extracts was assessed by α-amylas

12. Increased thiol levels in antimony-resistant Leishmania infantum isolated from treatment-refractory visceral leishmaniasis in Brazil
BACKGROUND Treatment-refractory visceral leishmaniasis (VL) has become an important problem in many countries. OBJECTIVES We evaluated the antimony-resistance mechanisms of Leishmania infantum isolated from VL patients refractory or responsive to treatment with pentavalent antimony. METHODS Strains isolated from antimony-refractory patients (in vitro anti
