Trypsin-like enzyme was purified from shrimp hepatopancreas through Q-Sepharose ionic exchange, benzamidine Sepharose-6B affinity, and Superdex 75 gel chromatography. Purity of trypsin-like enzyme was increased 69-fold with $44\%$ yield. The enzyme consisted of a single polypeptide chain with a molecular weight (M.W.) of 32 kDa judged by sodium dodecylsulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). The enzyme was completely inactivated by serine enzyme inhibitors such as soybean trypsin inhibitor (SBTI), tosyl-L­lysine chloromethyl ketone (TLCK), and leupeptin. However, the enzyme was not affected by tosyl-L-phenylalanine chloromethyl ketone (TPCK) which is a chymotrypsin specific inhibitor. The enzyme had no activity against benzoyl-tyrosine ethyl ester (BTEE) which is a chymotrypsin specific substrate. The enzyme showed high activity on the carboxyl terminal of Phe, Tyr. Glu, Arg, and Asp. However. no activity was detected against the carboxyl terminal of Pro, Trp, Cys, Gly, Val, and Ala.

A trypsin inhibitor was isolated and purified from Azismatis Rhizoma which has been used as a galenic for diuretic and antiphlogistic. Purification was carried out by 0-80% saturated ammonium sulfate salting out, DEAE- cellulose ion exchange chromatogrphy, Sephadex G-150 gel filtration. The molecular weight of Alismatis Rhizoma trypsin inhibitor(ARTI) was estimated to be about 23,000 Da by gel filtration and SDS-PAGE, it must be monomer. ARTI was stable at 0~6$0^{\circ}C$, but at higher temperature its activity was decreased about 35%. When benzoyl-dl-arginine p-nitroanilide was used as a substrate of trypsin, half-maximal inhibition of ARTI was observed at 0.071 $\mu$M. ARTI inhibited the hydrolysis of trypsin non-competitively and Km value was 0.81 $\mu$M.

Two trypsins were purified from shrimp hepatopancreas through ammonium sulfate fractionation, Q-Sepharose ionic exchange, benzamidine Sepharose-6B affinity, and Sephacryl S-300 gel chromatography. Both enzymes had a single polypeptide chain with a molecular weight (M.W.) of 32 kDa by sodium dodecylsulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SOS-PAGE), although trypsin A and B were estimated to be a molecular weight of 27.2 and 22.8 kDa, respectively, using Sephacryl S-300 gel filtration. Both trypsins had similar amino acid compositions and rich in glycine, valine, alanine, aspartic acid, and glutamic acid, but low in methionine and basic amino acids. Both enzymes were completely inactivated by soybean trypsin inhibitor (SBTI), phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride (PMSF), tosyl-L-lysine chloromethyl ketone (TLCK), benzamidine, leupeptin, however, not affected by tosyl-L-phenylalanine chloromethyl ketone (TPCK) and pepstatin.

Alismatis Rhizoma has been used as diuretics and antiphlogistics in the Chinese oriental medicine. A trypsin inhibitor was isolated from Alismatis Rhizoma using DEAE ion exchange column, trypsin affinity column, and FPLC chromatography, and its activity and characteristics were studied. The purifed Alismatis Rhizoma trypsin inhibitor (ARTI) was estimated to be about 22 kDa. The sequence determination on N-terminal amino acid residues and 84 amino acid residues has been completed, yet no homology has been found with trypsin inhibitors reported at NCBI. ARTI did not show inhibitory activities on chymotrypsin and elastase, however it exhibited a significant inhibitory activity on bovine trypsin, and formed a complex with rat liver 10-formyltetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase.

The production of Streptomyces griseus trypsin (SGT) by S. griseus IFO13350 transformed with the expression vector pWHM3-TR1R2, containing sprT encoding SGT and the two positive regulatory genes sgtR1 and sgtR2, was investigated in various media. Cultivation in Ferm-0 gave 1.4 times more trypsin activity than in C5/L medium. In addition, replacement of 2% glucose and 1% skim milk in Ferm-0 with 2% dextrin and 1% tryptone (designated Ferm-II) enhanced trypsin activity 4.1-fold. To simplify the purification process, the supernatant from the S. griseus transformant cultured in Ferm-II medium was fractionated with ammonium sulfate (25-55%), then subjected to Hitrap Benzamidine FF affinity column chromatography. The specific activity of SGT purified by one-step chromatography was 69,550 unit/mg protein and the overall purification yield was above 8%, indicating that this method is more effective than those previously reported. Purified SGT was most active at pH 8.0 and $50^{\circ}C$, and it maintained activity between pH 7.0 and 9.0 and at temperatures up to $70^{\circ}C$. These enzymatic properties are very similar to those of authentic eukaryotic trypsin purified from bovine pancreas.

Deterioration of fish muscle is known to occur more quickly in the dark fleshed fish than in the white fleshed fish, causing by their high intestinal proteolytic activity. Muscle degradation which suffer post-mortem autoproteolysis is affected by trypsin with its unique activation function towards other enzymes. To compare physicochemical and enzymatic properties for the trypsins of the dark fleshed fish, trypsins from the viscera of anchovy (Engraulis japonica), and the pyloric caeca of mackerel (Scomber japonicus), yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacores) and albacore (Thunnus alalunga) were purified through ammonium sulfate fractionation, benzamidine-Sepharose 6B, DEAE-Sephadex A-50, and Sephadex G-75 chromatography Two trypsins from mackerel (designated mackerel trypsin A and mackerel trypsin B), and one each from anchovy, yellowfin tuna and albacore were isolated as electrophoretical homogeneity, The purities of anchovy trypsin, mackerel trypsin A and B, yellowfin tuna trypsin, and albacore trypsin increased to 78.1, 4.8, 9.3, 120, and 160-fold, respectively, compared to crude enzyme solutions. Molecular weights of the trypsins from the dark fleshed fish estimated by SDS-polyacrylamide electrophoresis were ranged from 22kDa to 26kDa. The trypsins contained higher amount of glycine, serine and aspartic acid, and less amount of tryptophan, methionine, lysine and tyrosine. Optimal conditions for amidotici reactions of the enzymes were pH 8.0 and 45$^{\circ}C$ for anchovy trypsin, pH 8.0 and 5$0^{\circ}C$ for mackerel trypsin A and B, pH 9.0 and 55$^{\circ}C$ for yellowfin tuna trypsin, and pH 9.0 and 5$0^{\circ}C$ for albacore trypsin. It was supposed that the habitat temperature of the dark fleshed fish is slightly connected with the optimal reaction temperature of the trypsins of the fish.

Streptomyces griseus trypsin (SGT) is an extracellular proteinase produced by S. griseus. The sprT gene, which encodes premature SGT protein, was cloned into the plasmid pWHM3, a Streptomyces-E. coli shuttle vector. When the recombinant plasmid was introduced into Streptomyces lividans TK24, two proteins with molecular weights of 28 kDa and 42 kDa were detected. The 28-kDa protein was a SGT protein while the larger 42-kDa protein is thought to have been a premature form of the SGT protein. The SGT protein was purified to homogeneity via ammonium sulfate fractionation and many column chromatographies, including CM -sepharose chromatography, Mono-S chromatography, and Superose-12 chromatography, from the culture broth of S. lividans TK24 harboring the sprT gene. The N-terminal amino acid sequence, isoelectric points, and stabilities at various conditions of the SGT proteins purified from the Pronase and transformant were almost identical. The amount of the expressed SGT in S. lividans TK 24 was determined to be 5 times more than that of S. griseus based on the enzymatic activity against artificial substrate.

Trypsin inhibtor produced by Streptomyces sp. S-217 was purified by solvent extraction and various column chromatographies. and physico-chemical properties of the inhibitor were investigated. Inhibitor complex was formed for incubation of 10 min. Streptomyces 5-217 showed the highest production of trypsin inhibitor when it was cultivated at $37^{\circ}C$ for 66 hr in the medium containing 2% mannitol & 0.9% peptone, pH 7.0. Trypsin inhibitor was purified by column chromatography and high performance liquid chromatography. Trypsin inhibitor indicated the maxium wavelength at 215 nm and solubilities in water, methanol and dimethyl sulfoxide were 95, 70 and 75%, respectively. The concentration of 50% inhibition ($IC^{50}$) was 15 $\mu$g/ml. The inhibitor was stable on heating at $100^{\circ}C$ for 60 min in pH 5~9 and was more stable in alkaline region than acidic region.
