Biochemical Properties and Anti-Biofilm Activity of Chitosan-Immobilized Papain
Chitosan, the product of chitin deacetylation, is an excellent candidate for enzyme immobilization purposes. Here we demonstrate that papain, an endolytic cysteine protease (EC: 3.4.22.2) from Carica papaya latex immobilized on the matrixes of medium ...

Chemical septoplasty using papain enzyme—a feasibility study
Background Though surgery can correct nasal septal defects through a procedure called septoplasty, many people seek non-surgical options. Papain enzyme has been used in the past to lyse intervertebral disc and has shown to have a lytic effect on ...

Peptide synthesis by recombinant Fasciola hepatica cathepsin L1 [PDF]
Synthesis of the tripeptide Z-Phe-Arg-SerNH2 has been accomplished by a recombinant cysteine protease, cathepsin L1 from liver fluke (Fasciola hepatica), using Z-Phe-Arg-OMe as acyl acceptor and SerNH2 as nucleophile in 0.1 M ammonium acetate pH 9.0–12.5%

A study of the enzymatic hydrolysis of fish frames using model systems [PDF]
A model system was employed to study the operating conditions and primary parameters of enzymic hydrolysis of cod proteins. Pancreatin, papain, and bromelain were used to hydrolyse minced cod fillets under controlled conditions and with the rate of ...

Cys25‐nitrosylation inactivates papain [PDF]
AbstractNitric oxide (NO) may modulate the catalytic activity of cysteine proteases. In the present study, the inhibitory effect of NO, released by the NO‐donors (±)‐(E)‐4‐ethyl‐2‐[(E)‐hydroxyimino]‐5‐nitro‐3‐hexenamide and nitroprusside, on papain action is reported.
