  • The proteins of the bovine erythrocyte membrane were analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate, and their relations to the slow sedimentation rate of bovine erythrocytes were investigated by treating the erythrocytes with trypsin. The erythrocyte sedimentation rates of bovine erythrocytes from Holstein and Korean native cattle were very slow compared with the human one (1/7 as slow as the human one) as reported previously. However, when human and Holstein erythrocytes were treated with trypsin (0.2 and 0.5 mg/ml) for 1 hour at ${37^{\circ}C}$, their sedimentation rates were markedly accelerated while the sedimentation rate of Korean native cattle's erythrocytes were not affected. Although the general protein profiles of the bovine erythrocyte membranes were almost similar to that of human, bovine erythrocyte membranes showed one additional protein band, called band Q in this study, which migrated electrophoretically to the mid-position between band 2 and band 3 in human erythrocyte membranes. Treatment of Holstein and human erythrocytes with trypsin caused a decrease or disapperance of the band Q from the erythrocyte membrane. Although the band Q in Korean native cattle's erythroyte membrane was decreased by trypsin treatment of the erythrocytes, the magnitude of the decrement was not so pronounced as in the case of human and Holstein erythrocytes. The glycoprotein profiles of the bovine erythrocyte membranes revealed by periodic acid-Schiff stain showed a marked difference from that of human. The PAS-1 (glycophorin) and PAS-2 (sialoglycoprotein) present in human erythrocyte membrane were almost absent from the bovine erythrocyte membranes. Instead, the bovine erythrocyte membranes showed a strong PAS-positive band near the origin of the electrophorograms, which is named as PAS-B in this study. The PAS-B band was disappered completely by the trypsin treatment of Holstein erythrocytes whereas the PAS-B band in Korean native cattle's erythrocyte membrane still remained after the trypsin treatment. The trypsin treatment of Korean native cattle's erythrocytes, however, led to the appearance of small molecular weight peptides, indicating that the high molecular weight glycoproteins were degraded by trypsin as in human and Holstein ones. These results suggest that the slow sedimentation rate of bovine erythrocytes is due in part to the presence of band Q protein fraction and PAS-B glycoprotein in the bovine erythrocytes.

  • This study was carried out to understand hyrolytic characteristics of $\beta-casein$ by enzyme in goat milk and to measure the inhibition effect of the ACE of the hydrolysate. In order to conduct the experiment, $\beta-casein$ of goat milk was separated using Mono S HR 5/5, a cation exchange column. The separated $\beta-casein$ was treated with trypsin of animal hydrolysis enzymes, in an effort to verify the characteristics of hydrolysis. The inhibition activity of ACE was measured and the results are as follows. By analyzing the hydrolysate separated from the trypsin-processed $\beta-casein$ of goat milk, the inhibition effect of the ACE was measured trypsin-hydrolyzed $\beta-casein$ demonstrated a $25.36\pm0.79\%$ of inhibition effect and the $IC_{50}$ of the hydrolysate from the trypsin-processed $\beta-casein$ reached $308.7\pm2.77({\mu}g/mL)$.

  • 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.

  • Two trypsins were purified from shrimp hepatopancreas through ammonium sulfate fractionation, Q-Sepharose ionic exchange, benzamidine Sepharose-6B affinity, and Sephacryl S-300 gel chromatography. Both enzymes had a single polypeptide chain with a molecular weight (M.W.) of 32 kDa by sodium dodecylsulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SOS-PAGE), although trypsin A and B were estimated to be a molecular weight of 27.2 and 22.8 kDa, respectively, using Sephacryl S-300 gel filtration. Both trypsins had similar amino acid compositions and rich in glycine, valine, alanine, aspartic acid, and glutamic acid, but low in methionine and basic amino acids. Both enzymes were completely inactivated by soybean trypsin inhibitor (SBTI), phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride (PMSF), tosyl-L-lysine chloromethyl ketone (TLCK), benzamidine, leupeptin, however, not affected by tosyl-L-phenylalanine chloromethyl ketone (TPCK) and pepstatin.

  • In this study, we developed a liquid crystal (LC)-based optical sensor for monitoring enzymatic activity through orientational changes in liquid crystals (LCs) coupled to the properties of a poly-${\small{L}}$-lysine (PLL)-based polymeric membrane. We prepared a PLL-based polymeric membrane at the planar interface between the thermotropic liquid crystal and aqueous phases. The PLL-based polymeric membrane was obtained by contacting the PLL solution with water immiscible LCs, 4-cyano-4'-pentyl-biphenyl (5CB) doped with adipoyl chloride. We then investigated the membrane properties by examining the permeability of the membrane to phospholipids, 1,2-didodecanoyl-rac-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DLPC). The permeability of the membrane to transport phospholipids was monitored through the orientational transition of 5CB in contact with the dispersions of DLPC. Since trypsin can enzymatically catalyze the hydrolysis of PLL, we incubated an aqueous trypsin solution with the membrane for 2 h at room temperature to cause an increase in the permeability of the polymeric membrane to DLPC. As a result, a bright to dark optical shift of LCs was observed, which implied that an enzymatic reaction between trypsin and PLL-based membrane occurred. Two control experiments using chymotrypsin and bovine serum albumin (BSA) revealed no sign of improved permeability based on the orientational transition of LCs.

  • The conventional peptide modification process of guanidination, in which the amino groups of lysine residues are converted to guanidino groups using O-methylisourea to create more basic homoarginine residues, is often used to improve the signal intensity of lysine-containing peptides in matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS). Here, we used three different protease enzymes (trypsin, Lys-C, and Glu-C) to evaluate the effects of guanidination on the MS signals of two enzymatically digested proteins. Horse heart myoglobin and bovine serum albumin were guanidinated either before or after digestion with trypsin, Lys-C, or Glu-C. The resulting peptides were subjected to MALDI-MS, and signal intensities and sequence coverage were systematically evaluated for each digest. Guanidination prior to Glu-C digestion improved sequence coverage for both proteins. For myoglobin, guanidination before enzymatic digestion with trypsin or Lys-C also enhanced sequence coverage, but guanidination after enzymatic digestion enhanced sequence coverage only with Lys-C. For albumin, guanidination either before or after Glu-C digestion increased sequence coverage, whereas pre- or post-digestion guanidination decreased sequence coverage with trypsin and Lys-C. The amino acid composition of a protein appears to be the major factor determining whether guanidination will enhance its MALDI-MS sequence coverage.

  • Dendrimers are a novel class of nonlinear polymers and due to their extensive applications in different fields, called versatile polymers. Polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers are one of the most important dendrimers that have many applications in nanobiotechnology and industry. Generally aldehyde terminated dendrimers are prepared by activation of amine terminated dendrimers by glutaraldehyde which has two problems, toxicity and possibility of crosslink formation. In this study, novel aldehyde-terminated PAMAM dendrimer was prepared and used for covalent immobilization of trypsin by the aim of finding a special reagent which can prevent crosslinking and deactivation of the enzyme. For this purpose aminoacetaldehydedimethylacetal (AADA) was used as spacer group between aldehyde-terminated PAMAM and trypsin.The findings of this study showed that immobilization of trypsin not only resulted higher optimal temperature, but also increased the thermal stability of the immobilized enzyme in comparison to the free enzyme.

  • This study was undertaken establish the relationship between trypsin inhibitor in raw soybean and antinutritional effect of raw legumes. 1) Among legumes produced in Korea, Glycine max contains a relatively high amount of protein(higher than 40%) compared with kindey bean, sword bean and mung bean and, furthermore, soybean which contains a high amount of protein possesses high trypsin inhibitory activity. 2) Disc electrophoretic pattern exhibited pattern exhibited that the crude protein preparation from Glycine max produced about 9-12 protein bands, and the pattern of electrophoretic mobility was very similar to each other. However, only a few protein bands were observed from the crude protein preparation of yard long bean, sword bean, adzuki bean, mung bean and rice adzuki. From the eluate of the sliced gel, it was confirmed that among those bands, only the fastest moving band contains trypsin inhibitory activity. 3) In chicks fed the normal diet the body weight was increased steady from one week and reached to 40% increase for three weeks but in chick fed raw bean diet, there was no body weight gain until two weeks feeding and only 10-20% of body weight gain was observed at the end of three week feeding. On the other hand, in chicks fed raw bean diet the weight of pancreatic tissue per 100g body weight was increased to about two-fold for two or three weeks but there was no change in liver weight. 4) In the case of amylase secretion from the pancreatic fragment, very strong stimulation on amylase secretion from pancreatic tissue of chicks fed a normal diet was produced by one unit of cholecystokin-pancreozymin. However, no stimulation was observed from pancreatic fragment of chick fed raw bean diet.

  • The effect of enzymatically hydrolyzed vital wheat gluten (EHG) on dough mixing and the baking quality of wheat flour frozen dough was examined. Three different proteases, pepsin, trypsin, and chymotrypsin, were tested individually, sequentially paired, or in combination of all three enzymes. Addition of 1% EHG produced no observable effect on the mixing properties of wheat flour dough. However, addition of 2.5% pepsin-hydrolyzed gluten decreased the mixing tolerance of the wheat flour, and 1% trypsin-hydrolyzed gluten increased the loaf volume of both frozen and non-frozen dough. This finding suggests that trypsin-hydrolyzed vital wheat gluten may serve as a baking additive in replacement for $KBrO_3$ to improve frozen dough quality.
