چکیده

There is a mobile equilibrium between the native and denatured forms of trypsin which depends on the concentrations of acid, alkali, and alcohol and on the temperature. The heat of denaturation in 0.01 N hydrochloric acid calculated from the effect of temperature on the equilibrium constant is -67,600 calories per mole.

The Estimation of Active Native Trypsin in the Presence of Inactive Denatured Trypsin

Inactive denatured trypsin changes into active native trypsin in the protein solutions which have been used to estimate tryptic activity. If the digestion mixture, however, is alkaline enough and contains enough urea this change does not take place. Such a digestion mixture can be used to estimate active native trypsin in the presence of inactive denatured trypsin.

Inactivation of Crystalline Trypsin

1. The rate of inactivation of crystalline trypsin solutions and the nature of the products formed during the inactivation at various pH at temperatures below 37 degrees C. have been studied. 2. The inactivation may be reversible or irreversible. Reversible inactivation is accompanied by the formation of reversibly denatured protein. This denatured protein exists in equilibrium with the native ...

Role of glandular kallikrein in the activation process of human plasma inactive renin.

Completely inactive renin was isolated from normal human plasma by DEAE-Sepharose column chromatography and Blue-Sepharose column chromatography. This inactive renin had a molecular weight of 54,000 daltons as determined by gel filtration on Ultrogel AcA 44. When the inactive renin was activated by trypsin, its molecular weight decreased to 48,000 daltons. The trypsin-activated renin differed f...

The refolding of denatured rabbit muscle pyruvate kinase.

The refolding of rabbit muscle pyruvate kinase after denaturation by guanidine hydrochloride was studied. On dilution of the denaturing agent, enzyme activity is only partially regained. The extent of regain of activity is dependent on protein concentration, showing a marked decrease at higher concentrations. The failure to regain complete activity appears to be related to the formation of inac...

Inactivation and Reactivation of B. Megatherium Phage

Preparation of Reversibly Inactivated (R.I.) Phage.- If B. megatherium phage (of any type, or in any stage of purification) is suspended in dilute salt solutions at pH 5-6, it is completely inactivated; i.e., it does not form plaques, or give rise to more phage when mixed with a sensitive organism (Northrop, 1954). The inactivation occurs when the phage is added to the dilute salt solution. If ...
