Protease inhibitors (PIs) are regulatory proteins found in numerous animal tissues and
fluids, plants, and microorganisms that reduce and inhibit the exacerbated and uncontrolled …

The action of proteases can be controlled by several mechanisms, including regulation
through gene expression; post-translational modifications, such as glycosylation; zymogen …

Proteases are involved in a broad range of physiological processes, including host invasion
by fungal pathogens, and enzymatic inhibition is a key molecular mechanism controlling …

Protease inhibitors (PIs) function as a natural adversary to proteolytic enzymes. They can
diminish or inhibit the catalytic properties of proteases, which are crucial for various tasks in …

The human fungal pathogen, Cryptococcus neoformans, is responsible for deadly infections
among immunocompromised individuals with the evolution of antifungal resistance driving …

Leguminosae or Fabaceae belongs to the Fabales order and comprises about 727 genera
