STRUCTURAL BASIS OF SUBSTRATE RECOGNITION IN THIMET OLIGOPEPTIDASE AND DEVELOPMENT OF NANOPARTICLES FOR THERAPEUTIC ENZYME DELIVERY

Neuropeptidases are responsible for degradation of signaling peptides in the central nervous system and periphery. Some neuropeptidases have also been shown to play a role as part of the cell’s hydrolytic machinery responsible for breaking down proteins and peptides into amino acids, and these enzym...
