General description
Proteinase K is secreted extracellular medium by mold, Tritirachium album. It hydrolyses keratin and shows substrate specificity similar to serine alkaline proteinases.
Application
Proteinase K, immobilized on Eupergit® C from Tritirachium album has been used:
- in the protolysis of human serum
- in the digestion of gruel samples for enzyme linked immune assays (ELISA)
- in proteolytic stability studies of calcium ion flux inducers
Biochem/physiol Actions
Proteinase K hydrolyses keratin by cleaving peptide bonds adjacent to the carboxyl group of aliphatic and aromatic amino acids.
Other Notes
1 U corresponds to the amount of enzyme which hydrolyzes 1 μmol N-acetyl-L-tyrosine-ethylester (ATEE) per minute at pH 9.0 and 30 °C.
