Functional diversity of secreted cestode Kunitz proteins: Inhibition of serine peptidases and blockade of cation channels

13 Feb 2017

Abstract excerpt

We previously reported a multigene family of monodomain Kunitz proteins from Echinococcus granulosus (EgKU-1-EgKU-8), and provided evidence that some EgKUs are secreted by larval worms to the host interface. In addition, functional studies and homology modeling suggested that, similar to monodomain Kunitz families present in animal venoms, the E. granulosus family could include peptidase inhibitors as well as...
