The amino acid composition of the protease (TI-Ajl) inhibitor from Actinomyces janthinus 118 has been determined. It was shown that the TI-Ajl, S-SI and plasminostreptin inhibitors of trypsin and subtilisin have a number of common features: number of double bonds, tryptophane and tyrosine residues, prevalence of the acidic amino acids over the basic ones, ets. The effect of chemical modification of amino groups, arginine, tyrosine and methionine residues on the inhibitory activity of TI-Ajl was studied. The data obtained are indicative of the presence of two active centers of the inhibitor. The antitrypsin center contains a lysine residue. |
