In this study, we investigated the tripolyphosphatase (TPPase) activity responsible for the hydrolysis of tripolyphosphates (TPP) in rabbit Psoas major muscle tissue. After a series of extraction and purification steps, myosin was identified to be a TPPase. Optimum pH and temperature for myosin-TPPase activity were 6.0 and 35°C, respectively. We also found that myosin-TPPase activity was significantly influenced by Mg(2+) and Ca(2+) levels, whose optimal concentrations were determined to be 3 and 6mM, respectively. Furthermore, myosin-TPPase was strongly inhibited by EDTA-4Na(+) and KIO(3), and was slightly activated by EDTA-2Na(+). These results suggest that it may be useful to regulate tripolyphosphate hydrolysis to enhance its function in meat processing.
在这项研究中,我们研究了三磷酸酶(TPPase)活性,该活性负责水解兔腰肌组织中的三聚磷酸(TPP)。经过一系列的提取和纯化步骤,肌球蛋白被鉴定为 TPPase。肌球蛋白-TPPase 活性的最佳 pH 值和温度分别为 6.0 和 35°C。我们还发现,肌球蛋白-TPPase 活性受 Mg(2+)和 Ca(2+)水平的显著影响,其最佳浓度分别确定为 3mM 和 6mM。此外,肌球蛋白-TPPase 被 EDTA-4Na(+)和 KIO(3)强烈抑制,而被 EDTA-2Na(+)轻微激活。这些结果表明,调节三聚磷酸水解以增强其在肉品加工中的功能可能是有用的。
