RT from Curcuma longa L.";
RL Biol. Chem. 389:299-303(2008).
CC -!- FUNCTION: Inhibition of trypsin (By similarity). Has anticarcinogenic
CC activity, prevents transformation of DMBA-treated JB6 cells. Has
CC antipromoter activity, prevents promotion by tetradecanoyl phorbal
CC acetate (TPA) in JB6 cells. Prevents tertiary butyl hydroperoxide-
CC induced mutagenesis. Protects AT base pairs and shows antimutagenesis
CC activity in TA102 and TA104 S.typhimurium mutagenesis tests. Inhibits
CC paw edema formation induced by phospholipase A2 in Swiss Wistar mice.
CC Prevents the release of arachidonate, the parent compound for the
CC synthesis of prostaglandins and prostacyclins. Has antimalarial
CC activity, kills P.falciparum. Has antivenom activity, nullifies the
CC lethal effects of N.naja venom and inhibits phospholipase A2 present in
CC N.naja venom. Has antifungal activity, inhibits cilia formation by
CC A.niger. Is not toxic or allergenic. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P01070,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:1731625, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18177267,
CC ECO:0000269|Ref.1}.
CC -!- BIOPHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES:
CC Temperature dependence:
CC Stable for 7 days at room temperature and for 30 days at 4 degrees
CC Celsius. Remains active after incubation at 100 degrees Celsius for 3
CC hours. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1731625};
CC -!- PTM: The N-terminus is blocked. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1731625}.
CC -!- MASS SPECTROMETRY: Mass=14177.135; Method=MALDI;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:18177267};
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the protease inhibitor I3 (leguminous Kunitz-
CC type inhibitor) family. {ECO:0000255}.
CC -!- CAUTION: The order of the first peptide shown is unknown.
