Papain cleaves peptide bonds of basic amino acids, leucine, or glycine. It is also hydrolyzes esters and amides.CAS Number: 9001-73-4EC Number: 232-627-2MDL Number: MFCD00131791Format: Milky white solutionSpecific Activity: ≤10 units/mg ProteinExtinction coefficient: 25.0Isoelectric point (pI): pH 9.6Optimum pH: 6.0 to 7.0Used to produce Fab fragments of antibodies, cell dissociation, morphological isolation of intact cortical neurons from postnatal rats. Limited papaindigestion is used for structural studies of enzymes and other proteins. In addition, papain is used in red cell serology to modify red cell surface to enhance or destroy reactivity of many red cell antigens. Useful for platelet serology studies and has also been used in enzymatic synthesis of amino acids, peptides, and other molecules.
