Product narme :   Enterokinase

Category :   Whitening agent

Characteristics and Application :  

Enterokinase is a serine protease, it is specific to cleave the fusion proteins to release the aim protein through the recognition sequence, (asp)4lys.So it is broadly to apply into product development of gene engineering.

It can identify & cleave the substrate which contains the cleavage site of enterokinase, for this, it can be used as a restriction cleavage site for processing recombinant proteins. It also can be used into the research area of the biology medicine, gene recombinant, biochemistry & molecular biology.

Enteropeptidase (also called enterokinase) is an enzyme involved in human digestion. It is produced by cells in the duodenum wall, and is secreted from duodenum's glands, the crypts of Lieberkühn, whenever ingested food enters the duodenum from the stomach. Enteropeptidase has the critical job of turning trypsinogen (a zymogen) to trypsin, indirectly activating a number of pancreatic digestive enzymes.

Enteropeptidase is a serine protease enzyme .Enteropeptidase is a part of the Chymotrypsin-clan of serine proteases, and is structurally similar to these proteins.
