Abstract:In this study, we introduced a novel method for pepsin immobilization through investigation into three different coupling reactions, aiming to simplify peptide mapping. We initially determined the optimal enzyme-to-substrate ratio to be 1:0.1 (mass:mass) for highest peptidic peak count via UV-detection. The study began with three coupling strategies, the triethoxysilylbutyraldehyde derivative, 4-triethoxysilylbutanoic acid (4-TESBA) approach proving most effective. The resultant coupled enzyme particles (CEPs)… Show more
