A study of the effect on nucleophilic hydrolytic activity of pancreatic elastase, trypsin, chymotrypsin, and leucine aminopeptidase by boronic acids in the presence of arabinogalactan: A subsequent study on the hydrolytic activity of chymotrypsin by boronic acids in the presence of mono-, di-, and trisaccharides

Abstract

The hydrolytic activity of trypsin, chymotrypsin, elastase, and leucine aminopeptidase, is inhibited by different boronic acids. However, all the enzymes are inhibited by the compound CbzAla(boro)Gly(OH)2. Therefore, these additives can control the nucleophilic hydrolytic activity of these enzymes.
