Popis: The introduction of intramolecular cross-links into trypsin with glutaraldehyde causes inactivation of the enzyme. When the reaction is performed in the presence of the inhibitor, benzamidine, a product of enhanced activity is obtained, although the number of cross-links remains about the same. Possible cross-linking schemes to explain these effects in terms of small conformational adjustments, caused by the inhibitor, are considered.
