title: Comparison of the kininogenase activity of human pancreatic trypsins and porcine Kallikrein on Met-Lys-bradykinin and human plasma kininogen.
abstract: Human trypsins 1 and 2 both converted Met-Lys-bradykinin to bradykinin and released bradykinin from kininogen in human plasma as measured by bioassay with the isolated guinea pig ileum. Porcine kallikrein did not act on Met-Lys-bradykinin and released kallidin from human kininogen. Since human trypsin 1 is only partially and trypsin 2 completely inhibited by soybean trypsin inhibitor, these data show that the criterion of susceptibility to soybean trypsin inhibitor cannot be used to discriminate between trypsin and kallikrein of different species.
