文摘
The fractioning of some components and their immobilization of Flavourzyme, a commercial protease/aminopeptidase preparation, has been investigated to improve its specificity and stability. Adsorptionof Flavourzyme on two ionic exchangers yielded two fractions with endoprotease activity and onefraction containing aminopeptidase activity. The use of an amine agarose gel has made it possibleto purify a 43 kDa protein with only endoprotease activity. Immobilization of this endoprotease andthe original Flavourzyme preparation onto glyoxyl-agarose provided derivatives that were morethermostable than their soluble counterparts. Tests using immobilized Flavourzyme and immobilizedpurified endoprotease for the hydrolysis of chickpea proteins showed that both preparations can beused for the production of protein hydrolysates and compare very favorably with the original crudeFlavourzyme in terms of reducing the production of free amino acids. This was especially so in thecase of immobilized endoprotease, which produced only 0.2% free amino acids. Keeping free aminoacids content low is very important in protein hydrolysates for nutritional use to avoid excessive osmoticpressure.
