In the present study, pepsinogen enzyme was purified from the S. commerson viscera in 7 steps, including; (1) using a buffer containing NaCl and CaCl2, (2) Acidification, (3) precipitation by dried sulfate ammonium, (4) Aluminum hydroxide gel, (5) Saturated ammonium sulfate, (6) Gel filtration Sephadex G-50, and (7) Anion-exchange DEAE-cellulose. Purified pepsinogen converted into pepsin quickly at pH 2.0, and its optimum pH and temperature were 2, and 37 °C. Hence, ammonium sulfate with 67/5 % saturation showed the highest activity and protein precipitation. Besides, results showed that 18% Alum gel had the highest enzyme activity in the precipitate formed during dialysis. Furthermore, pepsin activity was stopped above 50 °C, but immobilized pepsin on GO-PEG maintained it up to a temperature of 65 °C. Purified pepsin was completely inactive in the presence of 0.1 M pepstatin A. Catalytic constants KM and kcat for proteolysis of acid-denatured hemoglobin were 35/39 ± 0.03 M, and 5.3 ± 0.002 × 10 -5 S-1, respectively. Finally, based on the obtained results, it can be suggested that the use of aluminum hydroxide gel and graphene oxide can be a suitable approach for purifying pepsin enzyme from fish viscera and improving their thermal stability.
