Fluorogenic Peptide Substrates for Serine and Threonine Phosphatases
摘要:
A new fluorescent assay for Ser/Thr protein phosphatases has been developed. Hydrolysis of a phosphoSer residue liberates the Ser hydroxyl group, which induces a cyclization reaction on the N-terminal carbamate and releases a fluorescent reporter. Sequence selectivity is observed using several peptide substrates against alkaline phosphatase (ALP), bacteriophage lambda protein phosphatase (lambda-PPase), and vaccinia H1 related phosphatase (VHR). These studies suggest that the assay could be a useful tool for profiling the substrate specificities of medicinally important phosphatases.

A kinetic analysis of an enzyme assay employing a synthetic substrate that produces a detectable signal through a spontaneous organic cyclization/elimination reaction following the enzymatic reaction was conducted. The results from the calculation were used to predict the lag period and provide accurate measurements of the activity of alkaline phosphatase using the fluorogenic substrate ( 1).
