Title: An endo-(1----3)-beta-glucanase and a collagenolytic serine proteinase from Euphausia superba Dana (Antarctic krill). Author: Turkiewicz M, Kalinowska H, Galas E. Journal: Acta Biochim Pol; 1991; 38(1):79-85. PubMed ID: 1796712. Abstract: Two digestive enzymes from Antarctic krill: an endo-(1----3)-beta-glucanase and a serine proteinase which specifically cleaves native collagen were characterized with regard to their specificity and accommodation to acting at low temperatures. Their presence in the crustacean digestive apparatus proves that krill is an omnivorous organism, and this fact should be considered in estimations of its biomass stock.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
