Enzyme Function FUNCTION: Chymosin is synthesized in the mucosa of the abomasum (fourth stomach) of young (unweaned) ruminants (PubMed:16488399). The enzyme hydrolyzes casein to paracasein (PubMed:16488399, PubMed:23633601, PubMed:25726113, PubMed:25837439). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16488399, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23633601, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25726113, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25837439}.
Temperature Dependency BIOPHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES: Temperature dependence: Optimum temperature is between 45-55 degrees Celsius (PubMed:16488399, PubMed:25837439). 50% activity at 35 and 60 degrees Celsius. No activity below 20 or above 70 degrees Celsius (PubMed:25837439). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16488399, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25837439};
PH Dependency BIOPHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES: pH dependence: Optimum pH is about 5.1 (PubMed:16488399). Activity decreases with increasing pH values (PubMed:25837439). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16488399, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25837439};
