Activity

The peptide substrate contains a highly fluorescent 7-methoxycoumarin group that is efficiently quenched by resonance energy transfer to the 2,4-dinitrophenyl group. It can be used to measure the activities of peptidases that are capable of cleaving an amide bond between the fluorescent group and the quencher group, causing an increase in fluorescence.

It is an excellent substrate for endothelin-converting enzyme-1 (ECE-1) and neprilysin. The cleavage site by ECE-1 is the peptide bond between Ala and Phe (Johnson, G.D. and Ahn, K., 2000, Anal. Biochem. 286:112). The substrate is derived from bradykinin.

It is also an excellent substrate for ACE and active Cathepsin A and X/Z/P.
