Aiming to explore the use of ionic liquids (ILs) not yet described in the literature, this work evaluated the hydrolysis of proteins from chicken viscera using the protease Alcalase modified and unmodified by the IL tetramethylammonium bromide. The protein hydrolysates produced in the presence of the IL presented values of antioxidant activities 40% higher than the hydrolysates obtained without IL. In addition, with the presence of the IL, it was possible to obtain protein hydrolysates from chicken viscera with similar antioxidant activities, compared to the protein hydrolysates produced without IL, using 1/3 of the amount of enzyme.

A series of arylalkanoate esters and α-acetamidoarylalkanoate esters were tested as substrates for α-chymotrypsin and subtilisin BPN′. Chymotrypsin hydrolysed N-acetyl-l-phenylalanine methyl ester and methyl 4-phenylbutyrate faster than their respective higher and lower homologues, whereas methyl 2-acetamido-6-phenylhexanoate and methyl 6-phenylhexanoate were better substrates for subtilisin than their lower homologues. N-Acetyl-l-tryptophan methyl ester and its analogue, N-acetyl-3-(1-naphthyl)-alanine methyl ester, were hydrolysed 23 times faster by chymotrypsin than by subtilisin. These results indicate that the binding site of α-chymotrypsin is roughly 1.1nm (11Å) long and curved, whereas that of subtilisin is a longer system and less curved. The stereo-specificity during the hydrolysis of typical substrates by both enzymes was found to vary over a wide range. The enhancing effect of the α-acetamido group in the l-series of substrates and the detrimental effect in the d-series of substrates also varies considerably.
