Crystallization of Salt-free Chymotrypsinogen and Chymotrypsin from Solution in Dilute Ethyl Alcohol
نویسنده
چکیده
Chymotrypsinogen and chymotrypsin crystallize readily from dilute solutions of ethyl alcohol in the absence of salts. The crystals formed in the presence of alcohol differ in appearance from those formed in the presence of ammonium sulfate. Chymotrypsinogen yields well formed polyhedrons instead of fine needles usually produced in ammonium sulfate solution. Chymotrypsin yields fine needles in the presence of alcohol and rhombohedrons in the presence of ammonium sulfate. The enzymatic properties of the crystals formed in the presence of alcohol are identical with those of the crystals isolated in the presence of ammonium sulfate.

Protein interactions in solution characterized by light and neutron scattering: comparison of lysozyme and chymotrypsinogen.
The effects of pH and electrolyte concentration on protein-protein interactions in lysozyme and chymotrypsinogen solutions were investigated by static light scattering (SLS) and small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). Very good agreement between the values of the virial coefficients measured by SLS and SANS was obtained without use of adjustable parameters. At low electrolyte concentration, the ...

The introduction of one acetyl group into the chymotrypsin molecule by reaction with p-nitrophenyl acetate gives rise to an enzymatically inactive monoacetylated protein that rapidly loses its acetyl group and becomes active again in solutions of dilute alkali or primary alcohols." 2 On the other hand, the well-known polyacetylation of proteins with acetic anhydride, as described by Fraenkel-Co...

A short report has recently been made (1) concerning the preparation of an acetyl derivative of chymotrypsin containing a single acetyl group of relatively high reactivity. The reaction, which may be carried out by any of several nitrophenyl acetates, begins with a rapid initial liberation of the free nitrophenol in practically mole for mole proportions to the total chymotrypsin present. Therea...

Kinetics of lipase-catalyzed esterification of hexanoic acid and ethyl alcohol using the solvent-free system, surface coated lipase from Candida rugosa, had been studied. The effect of various parameters such as reaction time, reaction temperature, reaction kinetics, water removal and feasibility of solvent-free system had been focused. Candida Rugosa lipase was more effective than other li...
