I)
α-amylase inhibitors |
a)
Antidigestive proteins, block the action of herbivore proteolytic enzymes.
After entering the herbivore’s digestive tract, they hinder protein digestion
by binding tightly and specifically to the active site of protein-hydrolyzing
enzymes such as trypsin and chymotrypsin |
II) Lectins |
b) block the
action of the starch-digesting enzyme |
III)
proteinase inhibitors |
c) A
defensive proteins that bind to carbohydrates or carbohydrate-containing
proteins. After being ingested by an herbivore, bind to the epithelial cells
lining the digestive tract and interfere with nutrient absorption |
