any of several intracellular protease of animal tissue that aid in autolysis in some diseased conditions and after death
Seema. Shorey has written: 'Differences in the degree to which osteoclasts from different parts of the skeleton employ cathepsin K and matrix metalloproteinases for bone resorption'
Yes, proelastase is activated to elastase through cleavage by enzymes like proteinase 3 or cathepsin G. Elastase is a serine protease that plays a key role in breaking down elastin, an important component of connective tissue.
The destruction of matrix by osteoclasts involves the secretion of acid and enzymes, such as cathepsin K, that break down the mineral and collagen components of bone matrix. This process is essential for bone resorption, where old or damaged bone is broken down to be replaced by new bone formation.
Yes, covalent bonds are reversible. They can be broken through various chemical reactions, such as hydrolysis or dissociation, allowing for the rearrangement of atoms and formation of new covalent bonds.
Osteoclasts are known for their ability to break down bone tissue through a process called bone resorption. They contain specialized enzymes and proteins for this purpose, such as cathepsin K, matrix metalloproteinases, and vacuolar ATPase. Osteoclasts play a crucial role in bone remodeling and maintaining bone health.

Pepstatin A is an inhibitor of acid proteases (aspartyl peptidases). It forms a 1:1 complex with proteases such as pepsin, renin, cathepsin D, bovine chymosin, and protease B (Aspergillus niger). The inhibitor is highly selective and does not inhibit thiol proteases, neutral proteases or serine proteases. Solublized Beta-secretase and retroviral protease are also inhibited by Pepstatin A. It has been used to characterize proteases from several sources. Pepstatin A is thought to inhibit by a collected-substrate inhibition mechanism.
They got their education by secretly learning it if their master didn't allowed because it was illegal. Sometimes, their masters tought the slave even though it was against the law. By secretly learning it, they could learn it off another slave or steal a book and educate themselves.
