580 MMP FRET Substrate 8, TAMRA/QXL570

An orange-emitting internally quenched MMP substrate pairing 5-TAMRA with QXL570. It is monitored near 547/574 nm, making it useful when test compounds or biological matrices show substantial autofluorescence at shorter wavelengths.

• MMP activity assays
• compound screening with reduced short-wavelength interference
• tissue-remodeling research
• orange FRET protease assays

Norvaline and Dap-linked 5-TAMRA are integral to this exact construct. Optical settings should be matched to TAMRA/QXL570 rather than FAM/QXL520 substrates.
