The isolation and characterisation of Transglutaminase 2 inhibitors from natural sources
Transglutaminases are calcium dependent enzymes which are involved in a variety of human disease conditions. Nine different isotypes of transglutaminases have been described including transglutaminase 2 (TG2) which is the most well characterised isotype. Transglutaminases possess a range of …

Design, Synthesis and Evaluation of Covalent Inhibitors for Tissue Transglutaminase and Factor XIIIa
Transglutaminases are a family of enzymes expressed in various tissues of our body. Some are expressed ubiquitously while others are specific to a tissue. Their primary catalytic activity is to crosslink substrates via an isopeptidic bond. The work described in this thesis focuses on two of these …

Studies on bovine γ-glutamylamine cyclotransferase.
The purification and study of proteins are cooperative processes because at least partially purified protein is needed in order to study its properties, and certain information about the protein's properties is required in order to design its purification. Particularly difficult to purify is …

Influence of climate changes on cross allergies: possible involvement of pollen transglutaminase
… the underlying mechanism is little understood. Transglutaminases (TGases), a class of enzymes able to post-translationally modify proteins, are activated under stress and involved in some inflammatory responses, enhancing the activity of pro-inflammatory phospholipase A2, suggesting a role in …
