Abstract
Proteases in preparations of carboxypeptidase A progressively inactivate solutions of the apoenzyme but not the metal-containing enzyme. Free amino acids generated by proteolysis interfere with spectral studies after reconstituting the apoenzyme with cobalt. Purification by affinity chromatography eliminates this effect. Affinity-purified apoenzyme is susceptible to digestion with chymotrypsin but the metalloenzyme is not.
