General description
The trypsin molecule has two domains: one is related to the enzyme active site and the tryptophan residues; the other is related to the 8-anilinonaphthalene-1-sulfonate binding.
Trypsin is a serine protease. The pancreas produce the precursor trypsinogen and secretes it to the intestine. Trypsinogen is converted to trypsin by enterokinase in the intestinal mucous membrane.
Application
Trypsin has been used in a study to assess the similarities between the hepatitis E virus and human astrovirus. Trypsin has also been used in a study to characterize a unique technique for culturing primary adult human epithelial progenitor, or stem, cells.
Preparation Note
Minimum 1,000 BAEE units/vial
Analysis Note
Protein determined by E1%/280.
Other Notes
One BAEE unit will produce a ΔA253 of 0.001 per min at pH 7.6 at 25 °C using BAEE as substrate. Reaction volume = 3.2 mL (1 cm light path).

Human astroviruses (HAstVs) are a major cause of gastroenteritis. HAstV assembles from the structural protein VP90 and undergoes a cascade of proteolytic cleavages. Cleavage to VP70 is required for release of immature particles from cells, and subsequent cleavage by trypsin

Cellular heterogeneity is pervasive and of paramount importance in biology. Single-cell analysis techniques are indispensable for understanding the heterogeneity and functions of cells. Low-copy-number proteins (fewer than 1,000 molecules per cell) perform multiple crucial functions such as gene expression, cellular
