Inhibitory activities against angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) of enzymatic hydrolysates of porcine skeletal muscle proteins were investigated. Myosin B, myosin, actin, tropomyosin, troponin and water-soluble proteins extracted from pork loin were digested by eight kinds of proteases, including pepsin, $\alpha$-chymotrypsin, and trypsin. After digestion, hydrolysates produced from all proteins showed ACE inhibitory activities, and the peptic hydrolysate showed the strongest activity. In the case of myosin B, the molar concentration of peptic hydrolysate required to inhibit 50% of the activity increased gradually as digestion proceeded. The hydrolysates produced by sequential digestion with pepsin and $\alpha$-chymotrypsin, pepsin and trypsin or pepsin and pancreatin showed weaker activities than those by pepsin alone, suggesting that ACE inhibitory peptides from peptic digestion might lose their active sequences after digestion by the second protease. However, the hydrolysates produced by sequential digestion showed stronger activities than those by $\alpha$-chymotrypsin, trypsin or pancreatin alone. These results suggested that the hydrolysates of porcine meat were able to show ACE inhibitory activity, even if they were digested in vivo, and that pork might be a useful source of physiologically functional factors.

방선균은 토양 속에 다양하게 존재하는 미생물의 일종으로 그람 양성 진정세균으로 이차대사산물을 생산하는 시기와 포자 착생이 시작되는 세포분화의 시기가 밀접한 관련이 있다. S. griseus는 streptomycin을 비롯한 다양한 종류의 endopeptidase 및 exopeptidase들을 생산한다. 방선균에서의 protease 생산은 많은 경우에 이차대사산물이 형성되거나 형태분화가 유도되는 시기에 동시에 시작된다는 점에서 Pretense가 이차대사물질 생산 및 세포분화에 일정한 기능을 수행할 것이 라는 점을 시사하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 S. griseus IFO 13350에서 클로닝한 SGPD protease가 각 strain에서 형태학적으로나 생리적으로 어떠한 gene dosage 효과를 미치는지 조사하는 것이었다. sprD 유전자가 S.lividans를 숙주로 사용한 시스템에서 대량발현이 성공적으로 되는 것을 확인한 후, 본 유전자를 클로닝한 S. griseus IFO13350 균주와 이의 A-factor 결손주인 S. griseus HH1에 형질전환하였다. S. griseus HH1과 S. griseus IFO13350에서는 protease activity가 벡터만 도입된 대조군과 sprD 유전자가 들어간 형질전환체에서 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. 또한 S. griseus IFO 13350 및 HH1 모두에서 생리학적·형태학적 분화의 차이를 발견하지 못하였다. Chymotrypsin계열의 pretense를 암호화하는 유전자만이 S. griseus에서 발현이 repression된다는 사실을 본 연구 결과를 통하여 알게 되었다. 이를 바탕으로 sprD유전자와 동일계열의 chymotrypsin 계열의 유전자들이 공통적으로 S. griseus에서 repression 되는 일반적인 기전이 있을 것으로 판단, chymotrypsin계열 유전자들의 promoter부분의 염기 상동성을 조사하였다 번역개시부위 바로 상부 유전자부터 상동성을 조사한 결과 적어도 상당부분의 염기배열이 잘 보존된 지역이 존재함을 알게 되었다. 향후 이들 발현기구의 조절기구를 연구함으로서 protease의 기능을 밝히는데 좋은 단서를 제공할 것으로 판단된다.

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.

The aspartame, $\alpha$-L-aspartyl-L-phenylalanine methylester, is an artificial sweetener. Taking advantage of the fact that the aspartame is a derivative of dipeptide, synthesis of aspartame from the artificial polypeptide made by an artificial gene has been attempted. The artificial polypeptide (LAP32), a polymer of tripeptide (aspartyl-phenylalanyl-lysine), was purified from the E. coli cells harboring a recombinant plasmid containing the artificial gene. This polypeptide was then digested with trypsin and carboxypeptidase B to produce dipeptide (Asp-Phe). Using the esterase activity of $\alpha$-chymotrypsin, the dipeptide was directly converted into Asp-Phe methylester in a water-methanol system. When the methanol concentration in reaction mixture was 25%, 50% of dipeptide was converted to the dipeptide methylester without producing any by-products.

A livetin solution(LS) containing yolk immunoglobulins(IgY) was separated by treating the egg yolk with natural gum, carrageenan. Carrageenan has been used as a food ingredient. Relative absorbance of IgY LS after proteolysis was investigated. IgY LS was fairly stable to pepsin digestion at pH 3.0. However, IgY LS appeared to be susceptible to pepsin digestion at pH 2.0, showing 18% of relative absorbance and complete breakdown H chain after 30 min exposure. Relative absorbance of IgY LS was considerably high after exposure to trypsin and chymotrypsin for 8 hr. IgY LS showed especially good stability to chymotrypsin digestion.

In present preliminary report, we showed the possibility of silk sericin (SS) in enzyme immobilization. SS beads were prepared and enzymes were immobilized on it. The specific activity of immobilized a-chymotrypsin retained more than 87% compared to the free enzyme. The immobilized a-chymotrypsin has better stability against ethanol especially those immobilized on SS beads coagulated in methanol. Immobilized trypsin and lipase had also comparable apparent activity compared to free enzyme. Our result indicates that SS could be a good candidate for enzyme immobilization support due to its hydrophilicity.

The objectives of the current studies were to establish the optimal conditions for the production of extracellular protease inhibitor in a strain of Streptomyces fradiae. As results, it was found that cell specific growth rate was very critical for the production of protease inhibitor and the optimum specific growth rate was found to be 0.05 h$^{-1}$ . Dissolved oxygen tension and pH were also important to regulate the inhibitor production. The inhibitory mode of the purified inhibitor to .alpha.-chymotrypsin was found to be competitive (K$_{i}$=5.5*10$^{-7}$ M). One mole of inhibitor could bind two moles of .alpha.-chymotrypsin and the complex has very low dissociation constant.t.
