The Kinetics of the Amidase and Esterase Activities of Trypsin By
نویسندگان
چکیده
In previous reports from this laboratory investigations of the specific esterase activity of trypsin (1) and of the detailed kinetics of the hydrolysis of specific substrates by chymotrypsin and by carboxypeptidsse have been reported (2, 3). In the present paper a reinvestigation of the kinetics of the action of trypsin on benzoyl-L-argininamide and the results of kinetic studies of the action of trypsin on a series of esters of benzoylarginine are presented.

متن کاملDifferentiation of trypsin-like enzymes in human plasma.
The arginine amidase and arginine esterase activity of human plasma is compared with that of trypsin, thrombin, plasmin, and kallikrein by using the homologous synthetic amino acid substrates, benzoyl arginine amide (BAA) and benzoyl arginine ethyl ester (BAEE). Hydrolyses of BAA and BAEE in plasma are distinguished by several features: pH optimum, heat stability, storage stability, effect of d...
متن کاملSpecificity of the amidase and kininogenase methods for the determination of rat urinary kallikrein.
The specificity of the amidase and kininogenase methods for determining rat urinary kallikrein was studied. Male and female rat urine was employed. Esterase A1, A2 and kallikrein were separated by DEAE-Sephadex A-50 chromatography. Esterase A1 showed no amidase activity towards the substrate H-D-Val-Leu-Arg-p-nitroanilide. In contrast, esterase A2 and kallikrein attacked the substrate, and the ...
متن کاملA Histochemical Enzyme Kinetic System Applied to the Trypsin-like Amidase and Esterase Activity in Human Mast Cells
A method for the determination of enzyme kinetic constants V(m), K(m), and K(i) in a histochemical system has been devised. As a substitute for the reciprocal of the reaction velocity, the times necessary to reach a fixed amount of end product (the initial visible color) in a tissue site at various substrate concentrations are plotted, according to the method of Lineweaver and Burk, against the...
متن کاملChloramphenicol and ampicillin-induced changes in rat hepatic esterase and amidase activities.
The influence of ampicillin and chloramphenicol administered intraperitoneally singly or in combination on the protein content and the activities of hepatic esterase and amidase have been investigated in rats. The results have been compared to the effects of phenobarbitone (inducer) and p-nitrophenyl-phosphate (inhibitor) of hepatic hydrolases. Ampicillin pretreatment reduced protein level and ...
