| Summary: | Papaya (Carica papaya L.) is a popular plant which has several benefits, such as, a healthy
fruit, source of protease. Latex from papaya contains several protease, such as papain and
chymopapain. These enzymes can be collected from unripe green papaya. Enzyme was
isolated from latex using three methods. The first method is desiccation using desiccator,
freeze dryer, and oven which has temperature at 50oC. From this methods, the enzyme
activities can be derived as 0,116; 0,361; dan 0,225 unit/mg. For the second method, enzyme
isolated using 0 - 85% ammonium sulfate saturation gave activity of 0,303 unit/mg. And the
third method is procession of latex which is resumed from the journal, it is fraccination by
using two steps salt precipitation and has the enzyme activity as 0,046 unit/mg. To test the
enzyme in protein degradation, 1% (w/w) processed enzyme added into albumin to make
peptone and have % rendemen in a row as 4,36; 8,63; 9,78; 10,64; and 0 %. The content of
papain enzyme is set using electrophoresis native gel PAGE and SDS PAGE |
