Application

Casein fluorescein isothiocyanate from bovine milk has been used:
  • in accessing zona pellucida (ZP) and perivitelline space (PVS) to evaluate changes induced by protease treatment
  • to make a reference line in immunochromatographic devices
  • in running gel for the documentation of proteinases

highly sensitive protease substrate

Biochem/physiol Actions

Casein fluorescein isothiocyanate is mainly used as a substrate in estimating the protease activity of psychrotrophic bacteria. It is also used as a substrate for determining the activity of bacteria in milk.

Hsp104 is a yeast chaperone that rescues misfolded proteins from aggregates associated with proteotoxic stress and aging. Hsp104 consists of N-terminal domain, regulatory M-domain and two ATPase domains, assembled into a spiral-shaped hexamer. Protein disaggregation involves polypeptide extraction from an
