Pepsin (USP)
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Pepsin (USP) is a proteolytic enzyme. Pepsin (USP) catalyzes cleavage of peptide bonds in proteins and synthetic peptides. Pepsin (USP) dissolves protein nutrients, cleaves proteins into peptones, produces large polypeptides, smaller peptides, and free amino acids, affects amino acid release rates and protein allergenicity. Pepsin (USP) can be used for biochemical research.

Description
In Vitro
Pepsin (USP) has a bilobed three-dimensional structure with an extended active site cleft containing two catalytically essential aspartyl residues, and its flap region undergoes conformational changes upon inhibitor binding to enhance interaction[1].
pepsin (USP) hydrolyzes native α-lactalbumin[2].
Pepsin (USP) rapidly hydrolyzes αs1-casein and αs2-casein with limited resistant regions[2].
pepsin (USP)-mediated κ-casein hydrolysis and casein micelle coagulation are modulated by temperature, pepsin concentration, pH, calcium concentration, whey protein concentration, ionic strength, and milk species[2].
pepsin (USP) shows limited hydrolysis of native ovalbumin at pH 4 but extensive hydrolysis at pH 2[2].
pepsin (USP) extensively hydrolyzes raw myofibrillar proteins except for tropomyosin[2].
