Organic Solvent Stability

Organic Solvent Comment Organism
acetonitrile papain retains almost all its catalytic activity after 24 h of incubation in the presence of 99% (v/v) acetonitrile with a more compact conformation Carica papaya
dimethyl formamide papain shows a complete inactivation after 24 h when exposed to those media containing 90% (v/v) dimethyl formamide because of an irreversible conformational change Carica papaya
Methanol papain shows 80% loss of activity after 24 h incubation in 90% (v/v) methanol although no global conformational change and minor secondary structure rearrangements are detected Carica papaya
