| Abstract | A protease inhibitor protein with the molecular mass of 11,804.931 Da (analyzed by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry) was isolated from Aloe vera leaf gel and designated as AVPI-12. The isoelectric point of the protein is about 7.43. The first ten amino acid sequence from the N-terminal was found to be R–D–W–A–E–P–N–D–G–Y, which did not match other protease inhibitors in database searches and other publications, indicating AVPI-12 is a novel protease inhibitor. The band protein of AVPI-12 migrated further on nonreducing sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) than reducing SDS-PAGE. This result indicated that the molecule of AVPI-12 did not contain interchain disulfide bonds, but appeared to have intrachain disulfide bonds instead. AVPI-12 strongly resisted digestion by the serine proteases human plasmin and bovine trypsin. The protein could protect the γ-subunit of human fibrinogen from plasmin and trypsin digestion, similar to the natural plasma serine protease inhibitor α$_{2}$-macroglobulin. The protein also could protect the γ-subunit of fibrinogen from the cysteine protease papain. AVPI-12 also exhibited dose-dependent inhibition of the fibrinogenolytic activity of plasmin, similar to α$_{2}$-macroglobulin. The fibrinolytic inhibitory activity of AVPI-12 and the small-angle X-ray scattering showed that the protein could protect human fibrin clot from complete degradation by plasmin. The inhibition of the fibrinogenolytic and fibrinolytic activities of plasmin by AVPI-12 suggests that the inhibitor has potential for use in antifibrinolytic treatment. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
