Suitable for both protein and nucleic acid isolation. Exhibits proteolytic activity on proteins, peptides, glycoproteins, amides and esters. Also active with nitroanilides of amino acids with protected amino groups, excluding arginine. Useful in the isolation of DNA and RNA, in the analysis of membrane structures and protein structure. Proteolytic activity: >30mAnson Units/mg Unit definition: One Anson unit is the amount of enzyme which liberates 1 µmol of Folin-positive amino acids per minute at pH 7,5 and 35 °C, using hemoglobin as substrate.
