The kinetics and mechanism of thermal inactivation of Penicillium canescens alpha-galactosidase in the temperature range of 55-65 degrees C have been studied. The kinetic scheme of alpha-galactosidase thermal inactivation was proposed which included the reversible dissociation of active hexamers into associating monomers and irreversible denaturation of monomers. The kinetic constants of thermal inactivation have been determined. The effect of enzyme concentration and purification efficiency has been investigated. A possibility of defence of protein molecule from thermal inactivation in the presence of BSA, glycerol, melibiose, raffinose and stachyose is shown.

Caffeine (CAFF) is abundant in black coffee. As one of the most widely consumed beverages globally, coffee has been the focus of increasing clinical and basic research, particularly regarding its benefits in alleviating metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). However, the therapeutic effects of CAFF on metabolic-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) and the underlying mechanisms remain unclear.
