CAS 9001-33-6

Ficin

Description:

Ficin is a proteolytic enzyme derived from the latex of the fig tree, specifically from the species Ficus carica. It is classified as a cysteine protease and is known for its ability to break down proteins into smaller peptides and amino acids. Ficin exhibits a broad substrate specificity, making it useful in various applications, including food processing, meat tenderization, and as a digestive aid. The enzyme operates optimally at a slightly acidic to neutral pH and is sensitive to heat, which can denature its activity. Ficin is also recognized for its potential therapeutic properties, including anti-inflammatory and wound-healing effects. As a natural enzyme, it is generally regarded as safe for consumption, although individuals with latex allergies may experience adverse reactions. Its CAS number, 9001-33-6, is used for identification in chemical databases and regulatory contexts. Overall, ficin is valued for its enzymatic activity and versatility in both industrial and health-related applications.

Ficin - from fig tree latex

CAS: 9001-33-6

Ficin is a proteolytic enzyme, which is derived from the latex of the fig tree (Ficus species) with a catalytic mode of action that involves breaking down proteins into smaller peptides and amino acids. As a cysteine protease, it acts by cleaving peptide bonds in protein chains, typically acting at specific amino acid residues.
