Caseins enzyme-catalyzed reactions

The presence of salts in the enzyme-catalyzed reactions favored plastein production proportionally to their concentration. However, the conformation of the protein was changed by the influence of salts [75], Leonil et al. [85] reported that the pH effect on the precipitation of peptides is more marked than the effect of salt. Investigations were carried out into the precipitation of a group of hydrophobic peptides arising from a tryptic casein hydrolysate. [Pg.140]

This enzyme [EC 3.4.21.53], also known as endopepti-dase La, ATP-dependent serine proteinase, and ATP-dependent protease La, catalyzes the hydrolysis of peptide bonds in large proteins (for example, globin, casein, and denaturated serum albumin) in the presence of ATP (which is hydrolyzed to ADP and orthophosphate). Vanadate ion inhibits both reactions. A similar enzyme occurs in animal mitochondria. Protease La belongs to the peptidase family S16. [Pg.578]

An ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) allows for rapid screening and quantification of the presence of an antigen in a sample (Fig. 5-28b). Proteins in a sample are adsorbed to an inert surface, usually a 96-well polystyrene plate. The surface is washed with a solution of an inexpensive nonspecific protein (often casein from nonfat dry milk powder) to block proteins introduced in subsequent steps from also adsorbing to these surfaces. The surface is then treated with a solution containing the primary antibody—an antibody against the protein of interest. Unbound antibody is washed away and the surface is treated with a solution containing antibodies against the primary antibody. These secondary antibodies have been linked to an enzyme that catalyzes a reaction that forms a colored product. After unbound secondary antibody is washed away, the substrate of the antibody-linked enzyme is added. Product formation (monitored as color intensity) is proportional to the concentration of the protein of interest in the sample. [Pg.181]
