Description

Kiwifruit contains a cysteine protease called actinidin. It has been suggested that the actinidin inʻ Hayward’ fruit, the most common commercially available cultivar, can be divided into several isozymes. In the present study, two types of actinidin isozyme, A1 and A2, were purified from ʻHayward’ fruit, and these concentrations in the fruit juice of 16 kiwifruit cultivars/selections were determined using ion-exchange high-performance liquid chromatography. The concentrations of A1 and A2 were in the ranges of 0 - 2.32 and 0 - 1.77 mg/mL, respectively. There was a considerable varietal difference in A1/A2 ratios, ranging from 100 : 0 to 28 : 72.
