This finding raises many questions, including the regulation of Ctrb expression and activity, the trafficking mechanism responsible for its lysosomal delivery, its cellular targets, and other novel roles. We anticipate that our findings will stimulate additional interest to serine protease-dependent ...
Metrics Abstract Studies of salt effects on enzyme activity have typically been conducted at standard temperatures and pressures, thus missing effects which only become apparent under non-standard conditions. Here we show that perchlorate salts, which are found pervasively on Mars, increase the activity...
