Abstract

An extracellular protease inhibitor (BTPI-301) of trypsin was purified and characterized from an isolate of Pseudomonas mendocina. BTPI-301was purified to homogeneity by (NH4)2SO4, precipitation, DEAE Sepharose and CNBr-activated Sepharose chromatography. Homogeneity was proved by native PAGE and SDS-PAGE. The intact molecular mass was 11567 Da by MALDI-TOF analysis. BTPI-301was a competitive inhibitor with a Ki of 3.5 × 10(-10) M. It was stable and active at pH 4-12 and also at 4-90 °C for 1 h. Peptide mass fingerprinting by MALDI revealed that the BTPI-301 is a new inhibitor not reported so far with protease inhibitory activity. The pI of the inhibitor was 3.8. The stoichiometry of trypsin-BTPI-301 interaction is 1:1. The inhibitor was specific towards trypsin. A pH tolerant and thermostable protease inhibitor BTPI-301 active against trypsin was purified and characterized from P. mendocina that could be developed and used as biopreservative as well as biocontrol agent.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 02 September 2017.
All research outputs
#17,292,294
of 25,382,440 outputs
Outputs from Biotechnology Techniques
#2,206
of 2,762 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#207,624
of 323,945 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Biotechnology Techniques
#7
of 26 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,382,440 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,762 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.9. This one is in the 16th percentile – i.e., 16% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 323,945 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 27th percentile – i.e., 27% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 26 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 69% of its contemporaries.
