| Summary: | Cathepsin D from the muscle of bighead carp (Aristichthys
no bilis, R.)was extracted ,purified and partially
characterized . The extract ion and purification o f the enzyme was achieved byautolysis of the muscle,acetone
precipitation, gelfiltrat ion on Sephadex G100-120 and on ionexchange
carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC)column chromatography .
It had a molecular weight(m.w)of 37,500-38,000 dalton (D)
with a pH optimum at 3.2 and temperature optimum of 50°C.
Myofibril was also optimally digested at pH3.2. The purified
enzyme had a single major peptideband on sodiumdodecyl
sulfate polyacrylamide gelelectrophoresis SDS-PAGE )and was
completely inhibited by pepstatin . |
