(13) The effect of pH and temperature on the apparent association equilibrium constant (Ka) for the binding of the soybean Bowman-Birk proteinase inhibitor (BBI) and of its chymotrypsin and trypsin inhibiting fragments (F-C(p), F-T(p) and F-T(t), respectively) to bovine alpha-chymotrypsin (alpha-chymotrypsin) and bovine beta-trypsin (beta-trypsin) has been investigated.
(14) In the assay of two soybean trypsin inhibitors, the Kunitz and the Bowman-Birk inhibitors, two procedures were used: the current procedure in which the substrate is added last (the S-last test), after inhibitor is mixed with enzyme, and a new procedure in which the enzyme is added last (the E-last test), after inhibitor is mixed with substrate.
(15) The results for the total-body-irradiated mice receiving Bowman-Birk inhibitor concentrate suggested an effect midway between these two groups.
