Popis: | A spectrophotometric assay using succinylated gelatin as substrate is described for measuring the catalytic activity of gelatinases. The assay is based on measurement of primary amines exposed as a result of hydrolysis of the substrate by gelatinases. Comparison of hydrolysis by matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) 1, 2, 3, 7, 9 indicated that succinylated gelatin was primarily digested by MMP-2 and -9. The assay is rapid ( |
