Under reducing conditions, the molecular mass of the purified protein was estimated to be 106 kDa with a purification fold of 169.9 and a yield of 9.5%. Twelve peptides with a total of 517 amino acid residues were identified from the DPP-Ⅳ by mass spectrometry. The matching degree of the 12 peptides with the amino acid sequence of bovine DPP-Ⅳ standard was 100%. The DPP-Ⅳ was found to be a dimeric glycoprotein (210 kDa), with an isoelectric point of 5.8. The secondary structure of the DPP-Ⅳ had a typical β-sheet conformation, and the thermal denaturation temperature was (72.7 ± 0.3) ℃. Metal ions such as Zn2+, Fe2+ and Fe3+ revealed a significant inhibitory effect on the activity of DPP-Ⅳ. The inhibition rate of 1 mmol/L Zn2+ on the enzyme’s activity was as high as 98%.
