RT Journal Article T1 Aniserp: a new serpin from the parasite Anisakis simplex A1 Valdivieso, Elizabeth A1 Perteguer, María Jesús A1 Hurtado, Carolina A1 Campioli, Pamela A1 Rodríguez, Esperanza A1 Saborido, Ana A1 Martínez Sernández, Victoria A1 Gómez Puertas, Paulino A1 Martínez Ubeira, Florencio César A1 Gárate, Teresa K1 Serpin K1 Proteinase K1 Anisakis K1 Trypsin K1 Thrombin K1 Cathepsin L K1 Anticoagulant properties K1 Modelling analysis K1 Heparin AB Serine proteinase inhibitors (serpins) finely regulate serine proteinase activity via a suicide substrate-like inhibitory mechanism. In parasitic nematodes, some serpins interact with host physiological processes; however, little is known about these essential molecules in Anisakis. This article reports the gene sequencing, cloning, expression and preliminary biochemical and bioinformatically-based structural characterization of a new Anisakis serpin (ANISERP) PB BioMed Central SN 1756-3305 YR 2015 FD 2015 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10347/21698 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10347/21698 LA eng NO Valdivieso, E., Perteguer, M.J., Hurtado, C. et al.
