Aspergillopepsin I

• CAT Number: I042546
• CAS Number: 9025-49-4
• Purity: ≥95%

Aspergillopepsin I (Cat No.: I042546) is an aspartic protease enzyme produced by Aspergillus species, known for its broad substrate specificity and efficient protein hydrolysis under acidic conditions. It plays a critical role in food processing, biotechnology, and pharmaceutical industries, particularly in protein modification and peptide production. Aspergillopepsin I exhibits high catalytic activity and stability, making it valuable for industrial applications requiring precise proteolysis. It is also used in research to study protein structure-function relationships and to generate peptide fragments for analytical purposes.
