Develop and evaluate systems to prevent aminopeptidase N caused enzymatic degradation of perorally administrated peptide drugs. Bacitracin was covalently bound to the unabsorbable carrier matrix poly(acrylic acid) (paa) in order to avoid any dilution effects of the inhibitor in the

Aminopeptidase activities were identified in extracts of kidney, ovotestis, head ganglia, heart and haemolymph of Aplysia californica. These enzyme preparations hydrolysed [3H][Leu]enkephalin at the Try-1-Gly-2 bond as determined by h.p.l.c. analysis of cleavage products. In all these tissues, enkephalin-degrading aminopeptidase
Effects of fish meal replacement with meat and bone meal using garlic (Allium sativum) powder on growth, feeding, digestive enzymes and apparent digestibility of nutrients and fatty acids in juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum, 1792)
The simultaneous diffusion and metabolism of the D- and L-isomers of the aminopeptidase substrate, leucine-p-nitroanilide (LPNA), were examined in vitro in the hamster cheek pouch. L-LPNA was completely hydrolyzed during diffusion across the cheek pouch, whereas D-LPNA crossed the cheek
