Alliinase: A Comprehensive Review of the Pivotal Enzyme in Garlic Chemistry and Its Applications

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 4, July 2026.
Garlic crude extract was purified to obtain alliinase, which catalyzes alliin hydrolysis to release allicin. The free and immobilized alliinase shows potential applications in food, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, health products, and biosensors. ABSTRACT Alliinase is a pyridoxal 5′‐phosphate (PLP)‐dependent lyase that serves as the cornerstone of the ...
