  • In order to study the effects of enzyme modification on the physico-chemical and functional properties of myofibrillar protein prepared from the frozen sardine, Sardinops melanostica, the protein was hydrolyzed with pepsin under the enzyme-substrate ratio 1:100 at $37^{\circ}C$ and pH 1.65 for 1, 4, 8, 12, and 24 hr, respectively. The properties of pepsin-modified sardine myofibriliar protein were determined. The extents of proteolysis with pepsin as a fuction of time was showed a typical enzyme hydorlysis curve with an initial region of 4 hour period followed by plateau region. The SDS-acrylamide slab gel electrophoresis patterns of pepsin-modified proteins showed mainly disappearances of minor protein bands, but no changes of main protein bands. The gel filtration patterns through Sephadex G-75 of sardine myofibrillar protein showed two big peaks and three small peaks. All the small peaks were disappearanced by proteolysis with pepsin in one hour. and during the period of proteolysis the fast big peak became gradually smaller and the late big peak eluted more slowly. By proteolysis, the emulsifying activity and emulsifying capacity of sardine myofibrillar protein were all decreased. The effects of pepsin-modification on emulsifying capacity were greater than those on emulsifying activity of protein. The aeration capacity of the protein was increased about 1.9 folds and the foam stability decreased to 0.6 folds of control by pepsin-modification. The pepsin-modified sardine myofibrillar proteins showed about 0.6 folds of heat coagulation and 1.4 folds of viscosity of control. The pH dependence of solubilities of sardine myofibrillar protein showed two isoelectric areas of pH 5 and 9. The pepsin-modified protein showed more clear pH dependences at the early stage but not at the late stage of proteolysis.

  • Extraction and bleaching of citric acid- and pepsin-soluble collagens (ASC and PSC, respectively) from shark (Isurus oxyrinchus) skin and muscle were investigated. The optimal sodium hydroxide concentration for extraction was 0.3 M and the optimal treatment time for removal of foreign material was 9 h. The optimal sodium hypochlorite level for bleaching of shark skin was 0.48% (w/v), and sodium hypochlorite was a better bleaching agent than acetone, hydrogen peroxide (10%, v/v), sodium sulfite (0.48%, w/v), sodium thiosulfate (0.48%, w/v), or sodium metabisulfite (0.48%, w/v). Optimal citric acid concentration and extraction time for ASC were 0.3 M and 72 h, respectively, whereas optimal conditions for extraction of PSC were treatment with 0.1 M citric acid containing 0.1% (w/v) pepsin for 24 h. Protein contents in ASSC (acid-soluble shark skin collagen), ASMC (acid-soluble shark meat collagen), PSSC (pepsin-soluble shark skin collagen), and PSMC (pepsin-soluble shark meat collagen) were 88.66%, 83.09%, 90.33%, and 84.81% (on a dry weight basis), respectively, similar to that of commercial marine collagen (88.86%). Net collagen contents of ASSC, ASMC, PSSC, and PSMC, calculated from hydroxyproline levels, were 70.31%, 25.70%, 83.09%, and 32.94%, respectively. The yields of freeze-dried ASSC, ASMC, PSSC,and PSMC were 57.22%, 53.85%, 23.28%, and 20.61%.

  • In order to exploit a new type of food source, enzamatically modified hydrolysates and the plasteins synthesized from the filefish (Nevoden modestus) protein hydrolysates by plastein reaction were investigated. The optimum conditions for enzymatic hydrolysis of filefish muscle and synthesis of plasteins using papain, pepsin, $\alpha-chymotrypsin$ and protease (from Streptomyces griceus) were determined. The optimum temperature and pH for the hydrolysis of filefish muscle by papain, pepsin, $\alpha-chymotrypsin$ and protease were $50^{\circ}C,\;40^{\circ}C,\;55^{\circ}C\;and\;50^{\circ}C$; and 6, 2, 7 and 8, respectively. Those for incubation time and enzyme concentration were 4hr, $0.5\%$ for papain and protease, 24hrs $1.0\%$ for pepsin and $\alpha-chymotrypsin$. The pepsin was found to be more reasonable substrate for plastein synthesis from the economic point of view. The enzyme-induced plastein reaction could be optimized, namely, pH 4 for pepsin, pH 7 for $\alpha-chymotrypsin$, pH 6 for papain and protease: substrate concentration $40\%$ for pepsin, $\alpha-chymotrypsin$ and protease, $50\%$ for papain; the time of incubation, 24hr; enzyme/substrate ratio, 1 : 100(W/V) ; incubation temperature, $50^{\circ}C$.

  • It is necessary to determine a nitrogen supplying capacity (NSC) of soil for sustainable agriculture. NSC has been decided by directly detecting N mineralization potential (NMP) and inorganic nitrogen or by indirectly approximating from organic matter and chemical properties of soil. NMP is best method for NSC but it takes long period. A study was conducted to find a short-term incubation method using pepsin through 1) determining NMP of 3 upland and 3 paddy soils, 2) establishing analytical condition of pepsin digestion by comparing to NMP, 3) validating with relations to N requirements for maximum yield of rice. NMPs of 6 soils were ranges from $63mg\;N\;kg^{-1}$ to $156mg\;N\;kg^{-1}$. The pepsin digestion method of soil nitrogen was established by determining amino nitrogen from digesting 5 g of soil for 30 minutes by 0.02% pepsin. This method was so highly correlated with a maximum rate of nitrogen fertilizer that it could be used for determining NSC in paddy soil.

  • The effect of linoleate hydroperoxides(LAHPO) on pepsin activity was investigated. The activity of pepsin was largely decreased by LAHPO at various temperatures and pH. The inactivation of pepsin seems to be the radicals in the system because ascorbate and metal ions enhanced the inactivation of enzyme by LAHPO. It was shown by SDS-PAGE that LAHPO caused scission of the enzyme in the model system.

  • This study was carried out to understand the activity of pepsin, the proteolytic enzyme, to octapeptide (angiotensin II) in the presence of various synthetic antioxidants as food additives. 1) Dibutyl hydroxy toluene, butyl hydroxyanisole and ethyl protocathechuate did not influence the inhibitory activity of pepsin an the octapeptide as a substrate, but sodium-L-ascorbate inhibited pepsin activity at above 100ppm. However sodium L-ascorbate was completely removed after 30 minutes. 2) Pepsin brought about a quick break up the octapeptide, Asp-Arg-Val-Tyr-Ile-His-Gly-Phe, by splitting the Gly-Phe and Val-Tyr bond. 3) The melting point of synthetized octapeptide was $209-212^{\circ}C$, chemical formula and molecula weight were $C_{43}H_{65}N_{13}O_{12}{\cdot}CH_3COOH{\cdot}H_2O$ and 956.05, respectively. 4) The amino acid mole ratio of synthetized octapeptide by acid hydrolysis were Asp:0.98, Arg: 1.02, Val: 1.00. Tyr: 0.95, Ile: 1.00, His: 1.03, Gly: 0.96, Phe: 1.00.

  • The synthesis is described of new pepsin substrates of benzyloxycarbonyl-glycyl-L-tyrosyl-L-phenylalanyl-glycine ethyl ester and benzyloxycarbonyl-glycyl-L-tyrosyl-L-phenylalanyl-glycine for studies on the specificity of pepsin, and thin layer chromatographic examination of the peptides prepared showed the new substrates are homogeneous and also, same examination of the incubation mixtures showed that two synthetic substrates are cleaved by pepsin at the L-tyrosyl-L-phenylalanyl bond and hydrolysis of these substrates by pepsin is achieved without transpeptidation. It is found that synthetic peptides are moderately soluble with the amount of the substrate up to a concentration of 0.7 mM in aqueous sodium citrate buffers (0.04 M) in the pH range 1.8-4.0, thus obviating the necessity for the adding of an organic solvent in the assay mixture. The kinetic parameters for synthetic substrates are tabulated in the following table. The data in the table indicate that the susceptibility of synthetic peptides to peptic hydrolysis are relatively large and the change of the carboxyl-terminal group of synthetic substrate from glycine ethyl ester to glycine causes a small decrease in the susceptibility of the L-tyrosyl-L-phenylalanyl bond.
