Synonyms: Trypsin inhibitor from Glycine max (soybean); SBTI
MDL Number: MFCD00082103
Storage: 2-8C
Application: Trypsin has been used in a study to assess the potential application in animal cell culture of an alkaline protease from a non-toxigenic mangrove isolate of Vibrio sp. V26. Trypsin has also been used in a study to improve the detection of fungi in eosinophilic mucin.
Biochem Physiol Actions: This inhibitor acts against trypsin, and chymotrypsin and plasmin to a lesser extent. It will also inhibit proteases with mechanisms similar to trypsin, plasma kallikrein and coagulation Factor X. The trypsin inhibitor will not act against metalloproteases, tissue-baseed kallikrein, acid proteases, or thio proteases. This inhibitor acts by forming a 1:1 stoichiometric complex with the protease active site, and then cleaving a single arginine-isoleucine bond on the inhibitor. The inhibition is both reversible and pH dependent.
