Cysteine inhibition of phage multiplication in Escherichia
coli has been described by a number of workers. More recently
cysteine has been found to lower the yield of Streptomyces griseus
phage. The present study sought a more complete description of the
"cysteine effect" as it has been noted in the S....
High proteolytic activity Pacific whiting muscle causes hydrolysis of myofibrillar protein and lowers surimi gel quality. Although food grade proteinase inhibitors can be used to prevent autolytic activity in surimi, their usage is limited due to their adverse effects on the organoleptic quality of surimi. Cystatins however can be used...
Rainbow trout cystatin C cDNA has been isolated from
trout liver. The full-length cystatin cDNA (674 bp)
included the 5'untranslated region and the polyadenylation
signal sequence AATAAA in the 3' region. Translation of
the cDNA defines 132 amino acid residues. Comparison of
the amino acid sequence with those of family...
A partial cystatin cDNA from rainbow trout was
generated by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction
with two degenerate primers. The partial cystatin PCR
product was 168 bp and used to screen trout liver λgt 11
cDNA library. Four positive clones were isolated and
designated as cstl, cst2, cst3 and cst4....
