F(1)-ATPase (F(1)), a soluble portion of F(o)F(1)-ATP synthase (F(o)F(1)), is an ATP-driven motor in which gammaepsilon subunits rotate in the alpha(3)beta(3) cylinder. Activity of F(1) and F(o)F(1) from Bacillus PS3 is attenuated by the epsilon subunit in an inhibitory extended form. In this study we observed ATP-dependent transition of epsilon in single F(1) molecules from extended form to ha...

despite a highly beneficial role of water soluble arabinoxylans, the information about the effect of their addition on the properties of rye dough is lacking. the aim of this study was to check the influence of their modification methods and properties on water binding capacity of rye flour and suggest some possible explanations for the action of various fractions of arabinoxylans. three modifi...

Neutrase 0.8L and N120P proteases were used for oligopeptide production from apricot almonds meal, and response surface design was carried out to optimize the effect of hydrolysis conditions on hydrolysis degree (DH) and oligopeptide yield rate. Four independent variables were used to optimize the hydrolysis process: hydrolysis temperature (X(1)), enzyme-to substrate ratio (E/S) (X(2)), substra...

In this study, the hydrolysis of pretreated sorghum stem and rice husk was investigated at various initial enzyme concentrations and substrate loadings. The slowdown in enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulosic materials with conversion has often been attributed to decreasing the activity of enzyme. A kinetic model was developed and expressed mathematically based on enzyme deactivation for enzyma...

pectin is used as gelatinizing agent in food industry. in this study pectin was extracted from five commercial sugar beet varieties namely: doroty, rasul, 7112, br1 and ic using pre-hydrolysis technique. experiments were conducted using factorial design to verify the effect of temperature, time, percentage of hcl and water requirements on the extraction rate of pectin. the qualitative factors o...

lipase from candida antarctica, fixed on macroporous acrylic resin, has been used for the intermediate production of mono- and diolein by hydrolysis of triolein. the effect of altering concentrations of triolein and glycerol and the function of the molecular sieve on the hydrolysis reaction of triolein were investigated. the highest hydrolysis yield was observed for the utmost concentration of ...

Alpha glucoside inhibitors used to treat type-2 diabetes mellitus (DM) are likely to be safe and effective. These agents are most effective for postprandial hyperglycemia. Miglitol is a type of drug used to treat type-2 DM. A simple, selective, linear, precise and accurate reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method was developed and validated for a related substance ...

cow’s milk allergy is one of the most common food allergies in childhood. beta- lactoglobulin (β-  lg) is  a dominant  allergen in  cow’s milk. hydrolysis is  known as  an effective method to reduce the allergenicity of proteins. thus, the objective of this study was to compare the allergenicity of β-lg and its hydrolysates using an animal model. twenty four balb/c mice were divided into three ...
