Abstract This review describes Protease Inhibitors (PIs) which target or inhibit proteases,
protein digesting enzymes. These proteases play a crucial task in many biological events …

Plant protease inhibitors are diverse in number and in specificity towards various proteolytic
enzymes. This book focuses on the isolation, structure, characterization, physiochemical and …

Plant-based diets are a great source of protease inhibitors (PIs). Two of the most well-known
families of PIs are Bowman-Birk inhibitors (BBI) and Kunitz-type inhibitors (KTI). The first …

Proteolytic enzymes play essential metabolic and regulatory functions in many biological
processes and also offer a wide range of biotechnological applications. Because of their …

The serine protease inhibitors (SPIs) are widely distributed in living organisms like bacteria,
fungi, plants, and humans. The main function of SPIs as protease enzymes is to regulate the …

Abstract Background Plant protease inhibitors (PIs) constitute a diverse group of proteins
capable of inhibiting proteases. Among PIs, serine PIs (SPIs) display stability and …
