Abstract The objective of this work was to evaluate the antioxidant activity of protein hydrolysates obtained by the enzymatic hydrolysis of okara using an endopeptidase (Alcalase) and exopeptidase ...

In this study, 22 phenolic compounds were investigated to inhibit the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). Tannic acid showed the highest activity (IC50 = 230 μM). The IC50 values obtained for ...

A team of researchers, led by Professor Chae Un Kim from the Department of Physics at UNIST, has successfully tracked the catalytic pathway of carbonic anhydrase II (CAII), an enzyme that converts ...

Enzyme Activity Assay. Ten-microliter samples of DapA (250 nM) were added to 240 μL of DapA assay buffer [200 mM imidazole (pH 7.4), 35 mM Na pyruvate, 4 mM dl -aspartate-β-semialdehyde, 0.5 mg/mL o ...

For the enzyme activity assay, frozen pellets were thawed at room temperature. After being centrifuged at 3000 g for 10 min (4°C), 10–15 mL of supernatant was taken for sonication (power, 400 W; ...

A microscopic enzyme could be the key to helping nitrogen fertilizers stick better to the soil and prevent runoff that causes harmful algal blooms, according to a new review article published by a ...

Human somatic angiotensin I-converting enzyme is a key zinc metallopeptidase in cardiovascular regulation that hydrolyzes angiotensin peptides (Ang I, Ang II), as well as other vasoactive peptides, ...

The findings show how these two enzymes work in tandem to process proteins, and may have implications for the study of diseases such as those linked to neurodegeneration.
