Table 4.

Yields (η) obtained in the kinetically controlled synthesis of Z-Tyr-Val-OH, using 50% v/v ethyl ethanoate in 100 mM Tris(hydroxymethyl)amino methane hydrochloride buffer pH 8 as medium, and antiacanthain (0.075 mg/ml, 1.875 IU/ml) and granulosain (0.125 mg/ml, 1.850 IU/ml) as soluble biocatalysts, at 40°C under agitation at 200 rpm.

Acyl acceptor/donor molar ratio: 1. αs is the conversion percentage of acyl donor substrate.

The values with different superscript letters in a column are significantly different (p < 0.05) (IBM SPSS Statistics 27.0).

Bold values represent the maximal peptide yields from each experimental trial set.
