Descripción

Aplicación

α-Chymotrypsin from bovine has been used in a study to inform proteasome inhibition in order to advance anticancer research. α-Chymotrypsin from bovine has also been used in a study that functionalized surface anchored poly(methylhydrosiloxane) thin films on oxidized silicon wafers.

α-Chymotrypsin from bovine pancreas has been used:

• as a supplement for the collection of semen into Tris diluent
• as one of the proteases in the analysis of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II protease sensitivity assay
• as a component in YEPD broth for biofilm dispersion assay
• in the preparation of chitinase–chymotrypsin–DMSO buffer (CCD buffer) for enzymatic digestion of larvae

The enzyme from Sigma has been used to assess the effect of limited proteolysis with α-chymotrypsin on the sperm penetration.

Acciones bioquímicas o fisiológicas

α-Chymotrypsin is a serine peptidase and has 241 amino acid residues contained in three polypeptide chains (A chain-13 residues, B chain-131 residues, and C chain-97 residues) linked by disulfide bridges. Molecular weight of this enzyme is found to be 25 kDa. Its pI is 8.75. It selectively hydrolyzes peptide bonds on the C-terminal side of tyrosine, phenylalanine, tryptophan, and leucine. Ca²⁺ activates and stabilizes the enzyme. The enzyme is inhibited by diisopropyl fluorophosphate (DFP), phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride (PMSF), N-p-tosyl-L-phenylalanine chloromethyl ketone (TPCK), chymostatin, aprotinin, α1-antitrypsin, and α2-macroglobulin, 10 mM Cu²⁺ and Hg^2+.

A serine protease that hydrolyzes peptide bonds with aromatic or large hydrophobic side chains (Tyr, Trp, Phe, Met, Leu) on the carboxyl end of the bond.

Definición de unidad

One unit will hydrolyze 1.0 μmole of BTEE per min at pH 7.8 at 25 °C.
