Abstract
Human duodenal juices collected during tube instillation of raw soybean extract into the duodenum contained free trypsin and free Kuntiz soybean trypsin inhibitor (KTI) in the simultaneous presence of trypsin-KTI complexes. It has previously been suggested that this KTI-non-inhibitable trypsin has a general resistance to serine protease inhibitors. Four different trypsin forms have been found and partly characterized by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and isoelectric focusing followed by Western immunoblotting or enzyme staining. In addition, crossed immunoelectrophoresis and affinity chromatography with antibody-coupled gels have been used for identification of free and inhibitor-complexed trypsin.
