متن کاملFicus Enzymes. I. Separation of the Proteolytic Enzymes of Ficus Carica and Ficus Glabrata Latices.
Ficin is the name given to the proteolytic enzyme activity of the latex of trees of the genus Ficus (1). While this proteolytic activity has been utilized for centuries and Walti (2) crystallized a proteolytic enzyme from fig latex, little is known of the physical, chemical, and enzymatic properties of this activity. The information available on ficin indicates that it closely resembles papain ...
