Lysozyme (muramidase) hydrolyzes preferentially the β-1,4 glucosidic linkages between N-acetylmuramic acid and N-acetylglucosamine which occur in the mucopeptide cell wall structure of certain microorganisms, such as Micrococcus lysodeikticus. Extracts group specific antigens …

Also known as Poly-(1,4-a-D-galacturonide)glycanohydrolase. Used in plant protoplast preparation to digest cell wall prior to organelle isolation.

Pectolyase Y-23 is a highly purified maceration enzyme from Aspergillus niger. It contains two types of pectinase such as endopolygalacturonase and endo-pectin lyase in high activity. Included is a maceration stimulating factor which stimulates tissue maceration by both pectinases. Unit Definition:…

Cellulase is used for protoplast preparations. This enzyme shows a very high filter paper decomposing activity, as well as, appreciable xylanase and hemicellulase activity. It is an effective enzyme for use with pectolyase Y-23 for plant cell wall removal. It has been used in a study to assess the…

Trypsin consists of a single chain polypeptide of 223 amino acid residues. Member of the serine protease family Dissolves blood clots in its microbial form Treats inflammation in its pancreatic form Trypsin cleaves peptides on the C-terminal side of lysine and arginine residues.…

Pectolyase Y-23 is a highly purified maceration enzyme from Aspergillus japonicus. It contains two types of pectinase such as endopolygalacturonase and endo-pectin lyase in high activity. Included is a maceration stimulating factor which stimulates tissue maceration by both pectinases. Enzyme…

Pepsin, an acid protease, contains a proteolytic enzyme. Pepsin contains the "cathepsin" component which has milk curdling activity. It has a broad range of substrate activity and demonstrates an esterase acitivity. It generally attacks peptide bonds. Pepsin is a peptidase used to…

Lipases are used industrially for the resolution of chiral compounds and the transesterification production of biodiesel. Subclass of esterases Catalyzes hydrolysis of emulsified esters of glycerol and long chain fatty acids One unit will liberate 100 µ moles fatty acid per hour…

α-Chymotrypsin preferentially catalyzes the hydrolysis of peptide bonds involving L-isomers of tyrosine, phenylalanine, and tryptophan. It also readily acts upon amides and esters of susceptible amino acids. In addition to bonds involving aromatic amino acids, chymotrypsin catalyzes at a high…

One Component Microwell Peroxidase Substrate with excellent performance characteristics, good stability and wide working range. Develops blue-green color measurable between 405 nm and 410 nm.

Enzyme used in purification protocols of genomic and plasmid DNA to lyse bacterial cells.
