| 41. | Pepsin also undergoes feedback inhibition; a product of protein digestion slows down the reaction by inhibiting pepsin.
|
| 42. | Each time something acid is consumed or acid is refluxed, pepsins are activated and the symptoms worsen.
|
| 43. | Its low pH denatures proteins and thereby makes them susceptible to degradation by digestive enzymes such as pepsin.
|
| 44. | The low pH also activates the enzyme precursor pepsinogen into the active enzyme pepsin by self-cleavage.
|
| 45. | Using pepsin, they were the first to discern the diffraction pattern of a wet, globular protein.
|
| 46. | Therefore, pepsin in solution of up to pH 8.0 can be reactivated upon re-acidification.
|
| 47. | He and his group invented a vaccine for hepatitis B by treating blood serum with pepsin, urea and formaldehyde.
|
| 48. | Upon cellular uptake, pepsin is stored in intracellular vesicles of low pH at which its enzymatic activity would be restored.
|
| 49. | A rapid non-invasive pepsin diagnostic called Peptest is now available which determines the presence of pepsin in saliva samples.
|
| 50. | A rapid non-invasive pepsin diagnostic called Peptest is now available which determines the presence of pepsin in saliva samples.
