Vriesea carinata is an endemic bromeliad from the Brazilian Atlantic Forest. It has trichome and tank system in their leaves which allows to absorb water and nutrients. It belongs to Bromeliaceae family, which includes several species highly enriched of cysteine-proteases (CysPs). These proteolytic
The diversity of yeast species collected from the bromeliad tanks of Vriesea minarum, an endangered bromeliad species, and their ability to produce extracellular enzymes were studied. Water samples were collected from 30 tanks of bromeliads living in a rupestrian field site located at Serrada
A latent alkaline serine proteinase (ASP) has been extracted from the soluble fraction of lobster claw and abdominal muscles. The enzyme, which was irreversibly activated 30- to 40-fold by brief (2-3 min) heating at 60 degrees C, had an optimal caseinolytic activity at pH 7.75. Its molecular weight
A high-molecular-weight (Mr 740,000) multicatalytic proteinase (MCP) was purified over 3100-fold from soluble extracts of lobster claw and abdominal muscles. The enzyme was extracted from muscle in a latent state; brief (3 min) heating of an ammonium sulfate fraction (45-65% saturation) at 60
