Abstract:
Novel compositions of matter of the general formulaA--L--Phe--L--Arg--Yare described, in which A is lower alkanoyl, pyroglutamyl, substituted with --OH or halogen, and cyclo lower alkanoyls; Y is --OH or a known tag with either radioactive, fluorogenic, chromogenic or chemiluminescent properties.The compounds of the invention are useful as novel substrates for plasma kallikrein.A new method of performing the assay for plasma kallikrein is also described.
Abstract:
A method is disclosed for quantitative measurement of angiotensin converting enzyme activity in biological material. The method exploits certain acylated tripeptide substrates. The enzyme-catalyzed hydrolysis of the substrates results in the formation of a dipeptide reaction product and a remnant product. The substrate is radioactively labeled exclusively in that portion destined to become the remnant product. Preferably, the substrate prior to hydrolysis is essentially insoluble in an aprotic organic solvent, but the remnant hydrolysis product is essentially quantitatively extractible by the organic solvent. At the termination of the enzyme-catalyzed hydrolysis, the labeled remnant product is separated from the reaction mixture, and the radioactivity is counted in a suitable apparatus.
