Isolation and Characterization of Acid Phosphatase from Chickpea Seeds (Cicer arietinum)

Razia Khan, Mohammad Tariq, Anwar Khan, Naheeda and S.F. Mabood

Abstract: Acid phosphatase (AcP., EC: 3.1.3.2) from chickpea powder was extracted with acetate buffer. Best extraction was carried out at pH 5.5. The enzyme was found to be more stable at pH 5.5 at 4°C for a period of one month incubation. The activity of the extract stored in vitro at 4°C was quite stable for upto 1 month. The enzyme had an optimum pH 5.5 and optimum temperature of 30°C. The K_m value was found to be 8.3, μm for p-nitrophenyl phosphate as substrate.
