Description générale

Pepsin is an aspartic endoproteinase isolated from pig gastric mucosa. It is mainly used for the unspecific hydrolysis of proteins and peptides in acidic media. It also provides a limited hydrolysis of native immunoglobulins to yield biologically active fragments.

Spécificité

Aspartic endopeptidase with relatively broad specificity. Preferential cleavage: hydrophobic, preferably aromatic, residues in P1 and P1′ positions.

Application

Pepsin has been used for the digestion of liver tissue obtained from rat.

Notes préparatoires

Working concentration: 0.05 to 0.5 mg/ml
Storage conditions (working solution): A pepsin solution is stable at 2 to 8 °C, at least for one week, at neutral pH and under germfree conditions. Frozen aliquots of the enzyme solution are expected to be more stable.

A stock solution in 10 mM HCl (5-10 mg/ml) should be stable for at least one week at 2 to 8 °C, too. Storage light protected, tightly closed.

A short (2 minutes) incubation at 40 °C has negligible effect on the activity of lyophilized pepsin or pepsin in solution.

Remarque sur l'analyse

At 37 °C with hemoglobin as the substrate. One unit is the enzyme activity which liberates the amount of Tyr producing an increase in the absorbance of 0.001/minute at 280 nm.

Retinoid-storing hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) have recently been described as a liver-resident mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) population; however, it is not clear whether these cells contribute to liver regeneration or serve as a progenitor cell population with hepatobiliary characteristics. Here
