The effect of recombinant caspase 3 on myofibrillar proteins in porcine skeletal muscle

The objective of this study was to investigate the potential role of the caspase protease family in meat tenderisation by examining if caspase 3 was capable of causing myofibril protein degradation. Full-length human recombinant caspase 3 (rC3) was expressed in Escherichiacoli and purified. The rC3...
