Hydrolyze

Carbohydrate Enzymes Salivary Amylase (ptyalin) - made in the salivary glands, functions in mouth to hydrolyze (break down) starch to maltose (disaccharide) Pancreatic Amylase - made in the pancreas, functions in the small intestine to hydrolyze starch to maltose Maltase ...

... three reactions: ATP -> ADP +Pi ATP-> AMP +Pi AMP-> Adenine +Pi The apyrases are still referred to as ATPases because of their ability to hydrolyze ATP, although they can hydrolyze other substrates as well. It is a general case - some enzymes can (albeit at a lower rate) accept other substrates ...

... was a chaotropic salt like LiSO4 or LiCl, but I don’t know for sure. I guess you could try heating in 1N NaOH or 1N HCl to see if you can hydrolyze the amide links. Maybe KMnO4 cleaning solutions might work?

... successful for substrates other than cellulose (410), and the benefits of CBP are large enough to merit a parallel approach. For microorganisms to hydrolyze and metabolize insoluble cellulose, extracellular cellulases must be produced that are either free or cell associated. The biochemical analysis ...
