Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

Ficin is classified as a thiol protease. It contains a single reactive cysteine at its active site. The amino acid homology of the active site is similar to that of papain. Ficin will cleave proteins at the carboxyl side of Gly, Ser, Thr, Met, Lys, Arg, Tyr, Ala, Asn, and Val. The reported Km for the chromogenic substrate pGlu-Phe-Leu-p-nitroanilide is 0.43 mM. Ficin is inhibited by iodoacetamide, iodoacetic acid, N-ethylmaleimide, mercuric chloride, DFP (diisopropyl fluorophosphate), TLCK (Na-p-Tosyl-lysine chloromethyl ketone), and TPCK (N-Tosyl-L-phenylalanine chloromethyl ketone). Ficin can be used to generate high yielding F (ab′)2 fragments from mouse IgG1.

Définition de l'unité

One unit will produce a ΔA280 of 1.0 per min at pH 7.0 at 37 °C when measuring TCA soluble products from casein in a final volume of 10 ml (1 cm light path).
The enzyme is soluble in 1 M potassium phosphate buffer, pH 7.0 (0.25 mg/ml), yielding a clear solution.

Ficin is classified as a sulfhydryl protease isolated from the latex of fig trees. In most cases, a particular enzyme fits a few types of substrate and catalyzes one type of reaction. In this investigation, we found sufficient proofs for

The capability of ficin, a cystine protease, to form peptide bonds was investigated using several types of N-Boc-amino acid phenyl and naphthyl esters as acyl donor components. Enzyme-catalyzed peptide synthesis was carried out under optimized reaction conditions of pH, acyl

The sensitivity of immunosensors is strongly dependent on the amount of immobilised antibodies and their remaining antigen binding properties. The use of smaller and well-oriented antibody fragments as bioreceptor molecules influences the final immunosensor signal. The aim of this study

A novel cysteine protease inhibitor (Eel-CPI-1) was isolated from the epidermis of the eel. Eel-CPI-1 was shown to bind strongly to both lactose- and carboxymethylated papain-affinity gels. Its molecular mass under reducing condition was determined to be 18 kDa by
