Changes in protein profile during coagulation of latex from Carica papaya.
We describe the changes in peptide composition by SDS-PAGE analysis of latex from Carica papaya collected at various times after incision of the unripe fruit. The data show that during latex coagulation several peptides are processed in an orderly fashion.
متن کاملIsolation of Natural Inhibitors of Papain Obtained from Carica papaya Latex
Studies were carried out to natural papain inhibitor from papaya latex. Fresh latex from green fruits of Carica papaya was collected and immediately transported in ice bath to the lab, from which three fractions with inhibitor effect of esterase papain activity were isolated by latex dialysis, Sephadex G-25 gel filtration and ionic exchange chromatography in SP-Sephadex C-25. The isolated fract...
متن کاملCharacterization of the lipase from Carica papaya residues Caracterização da lipase de resíduos de Carica papaya
Lipases from vegetable sources have been the focus of intense and growing research. The use of enzymes from plants has the advantage of employing industrial waste products. Brazil is the world’s largest papaya producer and the market for products derived from papaya is growing year after year. In this study, the authors carried out the characterization and partial purification of the lipase obt...
متن کاملCrystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction studies of the glutaminyl cyclase from Carica papaya latex.
In living systems, the intramolecular cyclization of N-terminal glutamine residues is accomplished by glutaminyl cyclase enzymes (EC 2.3.2.5). While in mammals these enzymes are involved in the synthesis of hormonal and neurotransmitter peptides, the physiological role played by the corresponding plant enzymes still remains to be unravelled. Papaya glutaminyl cyclase (PQC), a 33 kDa enzyme foun...
متن کاملWound healing properties of Carica papaya latex: in vivo evaluation in mice burn model.
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Carica papaya is traditionally used to treat various skin disorders, including wounds. It is widely used in developing countries as an effective and readily available treatment of various wounds, particularly burns. THE AIM OF THE STUDY This study was aimed at investigating the healing efficiency of papaya latex formulated as 1.0 and 2.5% hydrogels. MATERIALS ...
