β¦ Synopsis
Aemmonus strains produce a variety of virulence factors including proteases. Studies on the kinetics of growth of Aerornonas cuviue NRRL B-966 and its proteases suggest that the proteolytic activities are produced throughout the growth phase, with peak level occumng at stationary phase. A. cuviue synthesize both intracellular and extracellular proteases with the latter account for major portion of the total activity. Optimum pH for the A. cuviue proteolytic activity is at 7.0. A. cuviue produces a thermoresistant protease, whose activity is dependent on Mg" and Ca" ions. Inhibition of proteolytic activity by phenyl methyl sulfonyl fluoride suggest the presence of a serine protease in A. cuviue. Nitrogenous compounds enhance the proteolytic activity while carbohydrates tested in this study inhibit the activity.

The early detection of both primary tumors and metastatic disease continue to be significant challenges in the diagnosis and staging of cancer. The growing recognition of the role of proteinases and proteolytic cascades in both the growth and metastasis of tumors has led to the development not only
