Tofu waste that is discharged into the aquatic environment has a negative impact on quality of water around tofu liquid disposal site. Industrial enzyme production currently dominated by proteases. Proteases in pharmaceutical field support absorption proteins digestive tract, as active cosmetic ingredients. This study aims to isolate, identify protease-producing bacteria from wastewater, determ...

ADAM metalloprotease-disintegrins share a common modular structure of functional domains for proteolytic, cell adhesion, and signaling interactions. The metalloprotease domain of oughly half of the known ADAMs contain an intact consensus metzincin catalytic site, and they are thus thought to function as active metalloproteases. The types of interactions mediated by ADAMs are expressly conspicu...

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...

Leipner, J. and R. Saller (2000). "Systemic enzyme therapy in oncology: effect and mode of action." Drugs 59(4): 769-80. Plant extracts with a high content of proteolytic enzymes have been used for a long time in traditional medicine. Besides proteolytic enzymes from plants, 'modern' enzyme therapy additionally includes pancreatic enzymes. The therapeutic use of proteolytic enzymes is partly ba...

Abstract This study was designed to evaluate the bioactivities such as ?-glucosidase activity, ?-galactosidase and growth behavior of Lactobacillus cultures in soy milk medium. Ten were considered this study. L. fermentum (M2) casei (NK9) selected due their better ?-galactosidase, activity medium during fermentation. Further, fermented with M2 showed higher proteolytic (0.67 OD) ACE-inhibitory ...

Abstract This work aimed to obtain aspartic proteases of industrial and biotechnological interest from the stomach crevalle jack fish (Caranx hippos). In order do so, a crude extract (CE) was obtained subjected partial purification by salting-out, which resulted in enzyme (EE) obtainment. EE were characterized physicochemically means zymogram. addition, effect chemical agents on their activity ...
