Ficain is an enzyme extract composed of several proteases that can be isolated from Ficus hispida L. and the latex of fig (Ficus carica). Ficain has different specificities in different proportions during fruit ripening. Ficain is widely used in protein hydrolysis, food, production of bioactive peptides and antibody fragments.

Description

Ficain is an enzyme extract composed of several proteases that can be isolated from Ficus hispida L. and the latex of fig (Ficus carica). Ficain has different specificities in different proportions during fruit ripening. Ficain is widely used in protein hydrolysis, food, production of bioactive peptides and antibody fragments[1][2].

In Vitro

Ficain (0-8 µg/mL) uses casein as the substrate and measured the absorbance of trichloroacetic acid filtrate at 280 nm to detect Ficain activity[2].
Ficain (0-200 µg/mL) increases the absorbance at 400 nm with dose dependent manner when p-nitrophenyl carbobenzoxyglycinate was used as the substrate[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
