The Ultraviolet Absorption Spectrum of Pepsin
نویسنده
چکیده
The ultraviolet absorption spectrum of Northrop's pure crystalline pepsin has been determined. The curve of calculated molecular extinction coefficients is given. There is noted a general resemblance of the absorption curve for pepsin to that for urease and tyrosine; the absorption band is maximum at 2750-2800 A.micro., minimum near 2500. A slight hump on either side of the peak of the extinction curve may be significant.

The Absorption of Ultra-violet Radiation by Crystalline Pepsin
Determination of the absorption spectra of pure preparations of Northrop's crystalline pepsin inactivated by irradiation with ultra-violet light shows that the total absorption in the ultra-violet region of the spectrum increases with the degree of inactivation. This increase is especially marked between 2400 and 2750 A.u. The rate of photoinactivation is shown to be sensitive to changes in pH,...
متن کاملMechanism of inhibition of pepsin by pepstatin. II.
Pepstatin, a strongly bound inhibitor of acid proteases, does not instantaneously bind to pepsin. The dissociation constant of pepsin-pepstatin complex is 9.7×10-11 M using Phe・Gly・His・Phe(NO2)・Phe・Ala・PheOMe as substrate. Difference ultraviolet absorption spectra show conformational change of pepsin in interaction with pepstatin. The bindillg of pepsin with pepstatin is stoicheometric and the ...
متن کاملIdentification of Mono-iodotyrosine from Iodinated Pepsin
Isolation of mono-iodotyrosine from slightly iodinated pepsin has been repeated and the properties of the product compared with those of synthetic dl-3-iodotyrosine. Ultraviolet absorption spectra, pK values of the phenol group, solubility measurements, and partition coefficients were so nearly identical for the two materials that there is now no reason to doubt that the product from pepsin is ...
متن کاملبررسی رشد بلور KDP تحت تأثیر یونهای فلزی به ویژه +3Al
Effect of Al3+ ions on the optical quality, growth rate, shape, and structure of potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP) crystal was investigated. Growth method was based on the “point seed” method in a solution with optimum concentration, following spontaneous growth at room temperature. FTIR spectrum showed neutralization of O-H group in KDP crystal by Al3+ ions. UV-Visible spectrum of the cryst...

Addition of EDTA to the KDP solution is an effective method to increase the stability zone and the crystal growth rate. EDTA neutralizes the chemical activity of metal ions impurity such as Al+3, Fe+3, Cr+3 (that exist in the chemical materials as impurity). Effect of Al+3, Fe+3, Cr+3 ions on the KDP crystal is investigated. Growth method was based on the “point seed” method following spontaneo...
