A serine proteinase from Penicillium citrinum was purified. The M(r) and isoelectric point were determined as about 26,000 and 9.5, respectively. Activity was retained up to above 40 degrees at pH 7 for 30 min, but the enzyme was completely inactivated at 50 degrees. The first amino acids in the N-terminal region were ANVVQSNVPSWGLARISSKRPGTTSYTYDSTAGEGVVFYGVDTG. The specificity differs from that of other serine proteinases. Kinetic studies on fluorogenic substrates were determined.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007328 Insulin A 51-amino acid pancreatic hormone that plays a major role in the regulation of glucose metabolism, directly by suppressing endogenous glucose production (GLYCOGENOLYSIS; GLUCONEOGENESIS) and indirectly by suppressing GLUCAGON secretion and LIPOLYSIS. Native insulin is a globular protein comprised of a zinc-coordinated hexamer. Each insulin monomer containing two chains, A (21 residues) and B (30 residues), linked by two disulfide bonds. Insulin is used as a drug to control insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (DIABETES MELLITUS, TYPE 1).
