چکیده

1. The maltase of saliva and that of E. coli (B. coli communis) hydrolyze maltose but not alpha-methylglucoside or sucrose and are therefore to be considered glucomaltases. 2. Maltase is rapidly and completely inactivated and digested by trypsin.

The Effect of TiO2-Nanoparticle on the Activity and Stability of Trypsin in Aqueous Medium

Trypsin (E.C.3.4.21.4) is a serine protease commonly used in proteomics for digestion of proteins. In the present study, the effect of nano-TiO2 on the conformation and catalytic activity of trypsin were studied. The thermal denaturation of trypsin has been investigated in the presence and absence of nano-TiO2 over the temperature range (293-373 K) at pH 3.0 and 7.25, using temperature scanning...

Contribution of mucosal maltase-glucoamylase activities to mouse small intestinal starch alpha-glucogenesis.

Digestion of starch requires activities provided by 6 interactive small intestinal enzymes. Two of these are luminal endo-glucosidases named alpha-amylases. Four are exo-glucosidases bound to the luminal surface of enterocytes. These mucosal activities were identified as 4 different maltases. Two maltase activities were associated with sucrase-isomaltase. Two remaining maltases, lacking other i...

Probing Conformational Feature of a Recombinant Pyruvate Kinase by Limited Proteolysis

Pyruvate kinase is a key enzyme in glycolytic pathway that catalyzes the transphosphorylation between phosphoenolpyruvate and ADP to yield ATP and Pyruvate. Geobacillus stearothermophillus has a stable pyruvate kinase with determined crystal structure that composed of four separate domains. Given that limited proteolysis experiments can be successfully used to probe conformational features of p...
