Protease from Bacillus licheniformis (C007B-565720)

Proteolytic enzymes are known to possess catalytic, non-catalytic and ancillary domains. Proteases are broadly classified as endopeptidases and exopeptidases. Functionally they are divided as aspartic, glutamic, cysteine, threonine, serine and metalloproteases.Application:Protease is an enzyme used to break down proteins by hydrolyzing peptide bonds. Protease is used to degrade proteins, to study protease inhibitors and to study thermal inactivation kinetics. Protease is used in nucleic acid isolation procedures in incubations.The enzyme from Sigma has been used to prepare chicken (leg) bone protein hydrolysates while evaluating ACE inhibitory peptides. It has also been used for the hydrolysis of Chlorella pyrenoidosa protein extracts during a study of their antitumor activities.
