Background Carnivorous plants have been fascinating researchers with their unique
characters and bioinspired applications. These include medicinal trait of some carnivorous …

Plant carnivory results from the adaptation of plants to their environment. The capture and
digestion of preys, followed by their assimilation by the plant is a source of additional …

Celiac disease is triggered by partially digested gluten proteins. Enzyme therapies that
complete protein digestion in vivo could support a gluten-free diet, but the barrier to …

Plants belonging to the genus Nepenthes are carnivorous, using specialized pitfall traps
called “pitchers” that attract, capture, and digest insects as a primary source of nutrients. We …

Hydrogen/deuterium exchange coupled to mass spectrometry (HXMS) utilizes enzymatic
digestion of proteins to localize the information about altered exchange patterns in protein …

The pitcher secretions of the Nepenthes genus of carnivorous plants contain a proteolytic
activity that is very useful for hydrogen/deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (HX-MS) …

Abstract Background and Aims Carnivorous plants have developed strategies to enable
growth in nutrient-poor soils. For the genus Nepenthes, this strategy represents producing …

Carnivorous plants use different morphological features to attract, trap and digest prey,
mainly insects. Plants from the genus Nepenthes possess specialized leaves called pitchers …

Members of the pepsin-like family (A1) of aspartic proteases (APs) are widely distributed in
plants. A large number of genes encoding putative A1 APs are found in different plant …

To improve the sample handling, and reduce cost and preparation time, of peptide mapping
LC-MS workflows in protein analytical research, we here investigate the possibility of …
