Scientific Background | R-E(EDANS)-IHPFHLVIHT-K(DABCYL)-R is an internally quenched renin substrate containing the human angiotensinogen-derived IHPFHLVIHT recognition sequence. Renin cleavage within this region separates EDANS from DABCYL and increases fluorescence, enabling continuous measurements of enzyme activity. The construct provides a chemically distinct reporter configuration from the terminally labeled DABCYL-gamma-Abu-IHPFHLVIHT-EDANS substrate. |
Research Applications | - renin activity assays
- renin inhibitor screening
- renin-angiotensin system research
- FRET protease method development
|
Experimental Notes | This construct is chemically distinct from other IHPFHLVIHT renin substrates because EDANS and DABCYL are attached through side-chain handles. Do not merge their kinetic specifications without experimental validation. |
