Key features and details

Chymotrypsin is a powerful enzyme that selectively breaks down peptide bonds involving L-isomers of tyrosine, phenylalanine, and tryptophan. It efficiently acts on amides, esters, and bonds containing aromatic amino acids, as well as those containing leucyl, methionyl, asparaginyl, and glutamyl residues. With 241 amino acid residues, chymotrypsin is a protein composed of three peptide chains: an A chain (13 residues), a B chain (131 residues), and a C chain (97 residues).

Product Description

Chymotrypsin preferentially catalyzes the hydrolysis of peptide bonds involving L-isomers of tyrosine, phenylalanine, and tryptophan. It also readily acts upon amides and esters of susceptible amino acids. In addition to bonds involving aromatic amino acids, chymotrypsin catalyzes at a high rate the hydrolysis of bonds of leucyl, methionyl, asparaginyl, and glutamyl residues. a-Chymotrypsin is a protein consisting of 241 amino acid residues. The molecule has three peptide chains: an A chain of 13 residues, a B chain of 131 residues, and a C chain of 97 residues.

Application Notes

α-Chymotrypsin is used for treating pancreatic insufficiency and in traumatology.
