Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
ethanol in 10% (v/v) ethanol, the enzyme significantly increases its activity by 50% Homarus americanus
Isopropanol the presence of 15% (v/v) isopropanol generates a significant increase of 80% on enzyme activity Homarus americanus
methanol exposure of the enzyme to 5-15% (v/v) methanol produces 50% increase in enzyme activity Homarus americanus

General Stability

General Stability Organism
the non-ionic detergents Tween-20 and Triton X-100 stabilize the enzyme activity. The enzyme is active until 2.5 M urea and is resistant to proteolysis by papain and renin. Glycerol (2.5-30% (v/v)) shows no stabilization effect on the activity of the enzyme. In 25% (v/v) methanol, the enzyme retains 100% of the activity Homarus americanus

Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
DMSO in the presence of 10% (v/v) DMSO a significant decrease in activity to 40% is observed. In 25% (v/v) DMSO the enzyme maintains 20% of the activity. Activity is completely lost when the enzyme is exposed to DMSO at concentration above 35% (v/v) Homarus americanus
ethanol at 25 and 35% (v/v) ethanol, enzyme activity decreases to 60 and 40%, respectively. In 50% ethanol, the enzyme completely loses its activity Homarus americanus
Isopropanol at 25% (v/v) isopropanol, the enzyme activity drops to 50%, enzyme activity is completely lost at 35% (v/v) Homarus americanus
methanol the enzyme loses activity in the presence of more than 35% (v/v) methanol Homarus americanus
NaCl purified enzyme retains more than 50% of proteolytic activity in final concentration of 1 M NaCl and 20% in 1.5 M NaCl Homarus americanus
Triton X-100 60% residual activity at 0.001-0.01% (v/v) Triton X-100, below 20% residual activity at 0.0005% or 0.05-0.1% (v/v) Triton X-100 Homarus americanus
