Actinidain (EC 3.4.22.14, actinidin, Actinidia anionic protease, proteinase A2 of Actinidia chinensis) is a type of cysteine protease enzyme found in fruits including kiwifruit (genus Actinidia), pineapple, mango, banana and papaya. This enzyme is part of the papain-like peptidase C1 family[1][2][3][4].
As a known allergen in kiwifruit,[5] the enzyme is under preliminary research for its effect on tight junction proteins of intestinal epithelial cells[6][7].
Actinidain is commercially useful as a meat tenderiser[8][9] and in coagulating milk for dairy products.[10] The denaturation temperature of Actinidain is 60°C (140°F), lower than that of similar meat tenderising enzymes bromelain from pineapple and papain from papaya.[11]
