Аннотация:The substrate specificity of two isoenzymes of the collagenolytic protease of the Kamchatka crab was studied Both proteases were shown to effectively hydrolyze types I and III collagen, as well as gelatin; the assortment of products formed as a result of enzymatic hydrolysis differs for isoenzymes A and C An investigation of the hydrolysis of a number of peptides showed that the crab isoenzyme A preferentially cleaves peptide bonds where the carbonyl constituents are Arg and Lys residues, whereas isoenzyme C prefers hydrophobic amino acids. The catalytic constants of the hydrolysis of a number of low-molecular-weight substrates in the presence of the crab proteases were determined which made it possible to classify the crab isoenzyme A as trypsinlike protease and isoenzyme C as a chymotrypsinlike protease. It was found that the peptide substrates of collagenase Pz-Pro-Leu-Gly-Pro-D-Arg and Z-Gly-Pro-Ala-Gly-Pro-Ala are not digested by isoenzymes of the Kamchatka crab collagenolytic protease.
