  BioMed Central | Full text | Limited proteolysis of human histone deacetylase 1
The linear relationship between trypsin proteolysis and enzymatic activity (see inset in Figure 1D) is consistent with the scenario that HDAC1 degrades to small peptide fragments in the presence of trypsin.
Limited proteolysis has been used previously to distinguish structurally accessible from inaccessible conformations of proteins, revealing function domains [35,36], and to assess protein stability [37].
The limited proteolysis provides a secondary assay to confirm that mutagenesis does not result in the global instability and unfolding of the protein [24].

 Diabetes: Skeletal muscle proteolysis in rats with acute ... @ HighBeam Research   (Site not responding. Last check: )
In diabetes, the increase in proteolysis was accompanied by reductions in circulating insulin to 25-50% of normal level, whereas food intake did not differ from control.
Because of the uncertain status of myofibrillar proteolysis in diabetes, the rate of degradation of contractile protein was also estimated from the rate that 3-MH accumulated in plasma.
This was not unexpected, because in normal rats, fasting per se enhances total and myofibrillar proteolysis in the hemicorpus preparation [23] and perfused hindquarters [34] and also increases total protein breakdown in skeletal muscles of eviscerated preparations [21].

 Ubiquitin-proteasome-dependent muscle proteolysis responds slowly to insulin release and refeeding in starved rats -- ...
In the present study, the rates of proteolysis were measured in vitro because the incubated muscle technique is the only system where it is possible to simultaneously determine protein synthesis and protein degradation rates, and also at the same time measure the contribution of the different proteolytic pathways to the rates of overall proteolysis.
Therefore, the lack of elevated plasma AA and/or insulin concentrations to inhibit proteasome-dependent proteolysis at 4 h of refeeding is unlikely to result from the antagonist effect of corticosterone.
Finally, the delayed inhibition of proteasome-dependent proteolysis measured in vitro is in close agreement with the delayed reduction in both the formation of ubiquitin conjugates and the downregulation of 14-kDa E2 expression upon refeeding.

 RNase L Proteolysis in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome: A Diagnostic Marker?
In previous sections, the proteolysis of recombinant or endogenous RNase L was monitored by 2-5A probe labeling.
Whatever the case, RNase L proteolysis removes the Cys-rich region (in the protein kinase homology domain) of RNase L which is believed to be involved in protein-protein interactions.
It is therefore conceivable that the proteolysis of RNase L might alter its interaction with regulatory proteins or its compartmentalization.

Two hallmarks of ubiquitin (Ub) dependent proteolysis have previously been demonstrated in lens cell or tissue supernatants: (1) the presence of ubiquitin conjugates, and (2) ATP-dependent proteolysis.
Nevertheless, conclusive proof was lacking of a requirement for ubiquitination of substrate proteins for proteolysis.

Moreover, the ability to interpret in vivo data gathered from animal models is restricted because it is not possible to conclude with certainty that a particular measured change results directly from a particular treatment or genotype.
However, autolysis is not obligatory for -calpain proteolysis (Gottin et al., 2001), and the 76-kDa isoform is not always proteolytically active (Geesink and Koohmaraie, 1999a); therefore, the degradation of desmin was used as an indicator of calpain- mediated postmortem proteolysis.
This transgenic model has p\otential application for experiments investigating the role of calpain and calpastatin in postmortem proteolysis, as well as research seeking to define the role of calpains and calpastatin in muscle growth and protein turnover in the live animal.

Such losses in alfalfa are especially high, with degradation of 44-87% of the forage protein to ammonia, amino acids, and small peptides.
We assessed post-harvest proteolysis in leaf extracts by measuring the concentration of 5% TCA-soluble amino acids over time.
Together, these results indicate that PPO and o-diphenols play a major role in post-harvest proteolytic inhibition in red clover, and that this system has the potential to be exploited in the preservation of other forage crops.
