Protease Enzyme _I ave site f 0¢ gy .° I I 7 0g° 1:1 Borate-Diol Complex 1.2 Borate-Diol Complex Acidification of borax in a liquid detergent yields boric acid and borates. The borate species react with propane-diol to form 1: 1 and 1: 2 borate-diol ester complexes. The 1: 1 complex weakly associates with the protease at the active site and provides competitive inhibition. 10/30/2014 NOVOZYMES PRESENTATION »%%% then lororro Mechanism of boric acid • Boric acid is a subtilisin inhibitor (alkaline serine protease inhibitor). • Dissolution of Borax in a liquid detergent yields boric acid and borates. Boric acid associates with the protease at the active site and provides competitive inhibition. • The borate species react with propane-dial to form 1: 1 and 1: 2 borate-dial ester complexes.
