Unveiling the Proteolytic Networks of Parasites, Volume 125 presents a cutting-edge exploration of specific proteases across a spectrum of parasitic organisms. Top researchers in the field conduct multifaceted examinations, shedding light on the distinct roles of these proteases within significant parasite groups, including malaria, trematodes, nematodes, and blood-feeding arthropods. Chapters in this new release include Bioinformatic analysis of proteases across multiple helminth species: a case study using Wormbase, UniProt and Merops databases, Proteasomes of parasites, Proteases of Trematodes as a promising drug targets-tentative title, Astacins, and metalloproteases in nematodes, and Proteases of bloodfeeding arthropods.
