BackgroundChymotrypsin is a serine endoproteinase that specifically cleaves peptide bonds at the C-termini of Tyr, Phe, Trp and Leu. Met, Ala, Asp and Glu may be cleaved at a much lower rate. ComponentsRecombinant α-Chymotrypsin, human lyophilized powder ProtocolOptimal incubation times and enzyme concentrations must be determined empirically for a particular substrate. Typical reaction conditions are as follows: Add Recombinant α-Chymotrypsin, human, to a final protease: protein ratio of 1:200 to 1:20(w/w), and incubate sample for 2–18 hours at 25°C. The reaction may be stopped, if desired, by adding 0.5% trifluoroacetic acid. Unit DefinitionOne unit is defined as the amount of Chymotrypsin that will hydrolize 1.0µmol of BTEE per minute at pH 7.8 and 25°C. bio-equip.cn
