Notes:
A method has been developed for the partial purification of a calcium activated neutral protease from bovine muscle, since application of methods previously used for rabbit or porcine muscle gave little or no yield. The new method involves extraction with phosphate-buffered KCl, saling out with (NH4)2SO4, affinity chromatography on mercurial agarose followed by gel filtration. The bovine protease required calcium ion and reducing agent for activity with a pH optimum at 7.5 and hydrolyzed myofibrillar proteins.
