  • Title: [Properties of immobilized trypsin and alpha-chymotrypsin and their use for purification of proteinase inhibitors from potatoes].
    Author: Levleva EV, Mosolov VV.
    Journal: Prikl Biokhim Mikrobiol; 1975; 11(3):427-32. PubMed ID: 1733.
    Abstract:
    Immobilized trypsin and alpha-chymotrypsin were obtained as a result of the enzyme attachment to bromo-cyanogen activated cepharose. Proteolytic activity (substrate--casein) of immobilized trypsin and alpha-chymotrypsin was 18.7 and 9%, respectively and their esterase activity with methyl ester benzoyl-L-arginine (trypsin) and ethyl ester acetyl-L-tyrosine (alpha-chymotrypsin) was 75 and 20% of that of soluble enzymes. Immobilized enzymes were used to purify proteinase inhibitors from potatoes by affine chromatography. Specific activity of trypsin and chymotrypsin inhibitors was increased 10 and 6 times, respectively. By isoelectric focussing it was shown that the purified preparation of chymotrypsin inhibitors consisted of two acid proteins and one alkaline protein, the latter being in predominance. The purified preparation of trypsin inhibitors contained equal amounts of proteins with the isoelectric point at pH 7.1 and 8.9 and a low quantity of the component with the isoelectric point at pH 5.7.
