And thatâs it (finally!) for our list of vegetables with pods; naturally, we will have missed some. Soâif thereâs a veggie you think belongs here, please get in touch. And when youâre in the mood for more veggies, drop by again. Weâre already working on our next list of vegetables (bulb and stem veggies).
7 For general digestion of proteins, suggestedconditions are a 0.4% solution of pepsin in10 mM HCl, and digestion for 30-90 minutes at 37 Â°C.Pepsin has optimal activity with native proteins atapproximately pH 1.0, but with some denaturedproteins the optimal activity is at approximatelypH 1.5-3.5.
Pepsin A is the principal digestive enzyme of gastric juice, formed from pepsinogen; it hydrolyzes peptide bonds at low pH values (is alkali-labile), preferably adjacent to phenylalanyl and leucyl residues, thus reducing proteins to smaller molecules (referred to as proteoses and peptones); pepsin B (gelatinase) is similar to pepsin A, but formed from porcine pepsinogen B and has a more restricted specificity; pepsin C (gastricsin is human pepsin C) is also similar to pepsin A, and ...
