The Diffusion Coefficient of Crystalline Trypsin
نویسنده
چکیده
The diffusion coefficient of crystalline trypsin in 0.5 saturated magnesium sulfate at 5 degrees C. is 0.020 +/-0.001 cm.(2) per day, corresponding to a molecular radius of 2.6 x 10(-7) cm. The rate of diffusion of the proteolytic activity is the same as that of the protein nitrogen, indicating that these two properties are held together in chemical combination and not in the form of an adsorption complex.

Formation of Trypsin from Trypsinogen by an Enzyme Produced by a Mold of the Genus Penicillium
1. A powerful kinase which changes trypsinogen to trypsin was found to be present in the synthetic liquid culture medium of a mold of the genus Penicillium. 2. The concentration of kinase in the medium is increased gradually during the growth of the mold organism and continues to increase for some time even after the mold has ceased growing. 3. Mold kinase transforms trypsinogen to trypsin only...

1. The gram molecular weight of a substance may be calculated from the osmotic pressure of its solution. 2. The radius of the hydrated molecule and, hence, the gram molecular volume of the hydrated solute may be determined from diffusion measurements. The hydration of the molecules may, therefore, be calculated from osmotic pressure and diffusion measurements. 3. Hydration may also be determine...

Antimicrobial therapy remains to be the most important method of wound infection treatment. Systemically administered antimicrobials may not achieve therapeutic level in wound. On the other hand, in the absence of surgical debridement (due to any reason), most topically applied antimicrobials cannot penetrate the wound in therapeutic amount due to the presence of eschar. Burn eschar is a protei...
متن کاملCrystalline Trypsin
A method is described for isolating a crystalline protein of high tryptic activity from beef pancreas. The protein has constant proteolytic activity and optical activity under various conditions and no indication of further fractionation could be obtained. The loss in activity corresponds to the decrease in native protein when the protein is denatured by heat, digested by pepsin, or hydrolyzed ...
