The specific reaction of trypsin inhibitors with trypsin to form stable complexes was successfully applied for detection of trypsin inhibitors in soybean. Soybean extract was treated with $Ca^{++}$ to remove globulin fraction, followed by digestion with trypsin and fractionated by chromatography on Sephadex G-50. The void volume fraction contained the trypsin-trypsin inhibitor complexes as well as trypsin. The trypsin inhibitors were then detected by their molecular weight differences on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, in which the complexes dissociate into trypsin and its inhibitors. With the method proposed, trypsin inhibitors were indentified by their ability forming the stable complexes with trypsin and their anti-tryptic moiety. The formation of the complexes with trypsin was further confirmed by two dimensional electrophoresis and DEAE-Sephadex A-25 chromatography. Employing the proposed method, it was found that soybean (Glycine max cv. Hill) contained 7 trypsin inhibitors.

A trypsin inhibitor was isolated and purified from Azismatis Rhizoma which has been used as a galenic for diuretic and antiphlogistic. Purification was carried out by 0-80% saturated ammonium sulfate salting out, DEAE- cellulose ion exchange chromatogrphy, Sephadex G-150 gel filtration. The molecular weight of Alismatis Rhizoma trypsin inhibitor(ARTI) was estimated to be about 23,000 Da by gel filtration and SDS-PAGE, it must be monomer. ARTI was stable at 0~6$0^{\circ}C$, but at higher temperature its activity was decreased about 35%. When benzoyl-dl-arginine p-nitroanilide was used as a substrate of trypsin, half-maximal inhibition of ARTI was observed at 0.071 $\mu$M. ARTI inhibited the hydrolysis of trypsin non-competitively and Km value was 0.81 $\mu$M.

Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) seed is the main source of protein and oil for human and animal. The use of soybean protein has been expanded in the food industry due to their excellent nutritional benefits. But, antinutritional and allergenic factors are exist in the raw mature soybean. Lipoxygenase, Kunitz trypsin inhibitor (KTI) protein, and ${\alpha}^{\prime}-subunit$ of 7S globulin are main antinutritional factors in soybean seed. Breeding of a new soybean strain with lacking these components is needed. The objective of this research was to select new soybean line with lipoxygenase-free, KTI-free, and ${\alpha}^{\prime}-subunit$ free (lx1lx1lx2lx2lx3lx3titicgy1cgy1 genotype). Total 434 $F_2$seeds were obtained from the cross of cultivar, "Gaechuck#2" and PI506876. Presence and absence of lipoxygenase, KTI protein, and ${\alpha}^{\prime}-subunit$ of 7S globulin was tested by SDS electrophoresis using a partial seed of each $F_2$seed. Only one $F_2$seed with lacking these three components was selected and was planted to $F_2$plant. Absence of lipoxygenase, KTI, and ${\alpha}^{\prime}-subunit$ protein was confirmed on the $F_3$seeds harvested. Selected line with lx1lx1lx2lx2lx3lx3titicgy1cgy1 genotype might be useful for soybean breeding.

Eight(I through VII) of Bowman-Birk proteinase inhibitor have been isolated from soybean with DEAE-Sephadex A-50. Inhibitor VII was a typical BBTI, showing high cysteine content(17%/mole) ud low trypsin to chymotrypsin inhibiting activity(TIA/CIA= 1.0) with the independent reactive site to each enzyme. Dissociation constant of trypsin-BBTI and chymotrypsin-BBTl complexes were $9.17{\times}10^{-9}M$ and $5.14{\times}10^{-8}M$, respectively. Inhibitor Vll was extremely heat stable. Six hours heat treatment at $100^{\circ}C$ caused only 50% decrease in it's original inhibiting activity. Except inhibitor III,6 other isoinhibitors differed from a typical BBTI in TIA/CIA, values, ranging from 3 to 29.

Three classes of proteinase inhibitors are known in soybean; the Kunitz trypsin inhibitor (SKTI), the Bowman-Birk proteinase inhibitor and its isoinhibitors. To study the molecular structure and expression characteristics of the SKTI, antibody was obtained by immunizing rabbit with the SKTI purified from soybean by preparative electrophoresis. Anti-SKTI antibody was not only specific for mature SKTI in soybean seed but also recognized the precursor which was synthesized in vitro. Translation in vitro was carried out in wheat germ extract with polyadenylated mRNA isolated from developing soybean seeds. One of the seed specific translation products, MW 24K, was identified to be the precursor for the SKTI by immunoprecipitation with anti-SKTI antibody. Mature SKTI of MW 20K, however, was not detected in the translates in vitro. These results suggest that the precursor polypeptide is synthesized from the mRNA and is cleaved to yield mature SKTI in soybean seed. The SKTI gene was expressed with the maturation of soybean seed in a tissue-specific and development stage-specific manner.

The separation of trypsin inhibitir using reverse micellar system was invertigated. Among the biffer system tested, 1.0M $CaCl_2$ solution (pH 3.0) and 1.0M NaCl soluation (pH 11.5) were most effective for solubilization and de-solubilization of protein, respectively. When these conditions were applied to two model sampeles, one of which was composed of the same amount of 7S protein and trpsin inhibitor, and the other of which was composed of the same amount of soluble soybean protein isolates and trypsin inhibitor, highly pure trypsin inhibitor was obtained. And in the real soybean, Kwng Gyo, pure trypsin inhibior was also obtained.

Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the $60\%$ isopropanol extract of soybean(Glycine max [L.] Merr.) seed revealed two abundant proteins with molecular masses of 19 and 10 kDa. Amino acid analysis revealed that the isopropanol-extractable protein fraction was rich in cysteine. Two-dimensional gel electro-phoretic analysis indicated that the 19kDa and 10kDa proteins had pI of 4.2 and 4.0 respectively. Peptide mass fingerprints of trypsin digests of the two proteins obtained using matrix-assisted, laser desorption/ionization-time of flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectroscopy revealed the 19kDa protein was Kunitz trypsin inhibitor and the 10kDa protein was Bowman-Birk proteinase inhibitor. When resolved under non-denaturing conditions, the isopropanol-extracted proteins inhibited trypsin and chymotrypsin activity. Results presented in this study demonstrate that isopropanol extraction of soybean seed could be used as a simple and rapid method to obtain a protein fraction enriched in Kunitz trypsin and Bowman-Birk proteinase inhibitors. Since proteinase inhibitors are rich in sulfur amino acids and are putative anticarcinogens, this rapid and inexpensive isolation procedure could facilitate efforts in nutrition and cancer research.
