title: [Isolation and properties of enzyme preparations from the whale pancreas].
abstract: A simple and convenient technique was developed for isolation of the proteolytic enzyme complexes from the whale (Balaenoptera) pancreas. The proposed techniques enables the proteolytic complexes to be obtained with the protein yield 2.6 times higher than the classical procedure. The proteolytic activity increased 3.2 times (casein as a substrate), esterase activities, 1.4 times (N-benzoyl-L-tyrosine methyl ester as a substrate) and 1.2 times (N-alpha-benzoyl-L-arginine ethyl ester as a substrate). Soybean and barley trypsin inhibitors and ovomycoid in free and immobilized state inhibit the esterase activities of the proteolytic complexes. An additional purification of the proteolytic complexes was carried out using the affinity sorbent Soybean trypsin inhibitor--Sepharose 4B. The molecular weight of the enzymes determined by means of PAAG electrophoresis was found to be 20 000-20 500. The hydrolysis of some synthetic substrates by the proteolytic enzyme complexes obtained according to the proposed techniques was being studied.
