Popis: | A number of derivatives of citrullyl-7-amino-4-methylcoumarin (Cit-AMC) have been synthesised and characterised. Their hydrolysis, releasing the fluorescent 7-amino-4-methylcoumarin, by the plant cysteine proteinases papain, ficin and bromelain was examined. Two derivatives in particular, Z-Phe-Cit-AMC and Z-Gly-Phe-Cit-AMC, were shown to be good substrates for these enzymes. The possible use of the fluorogenic peptides in assays for these enzymes is discussed. |
