FAP Fluorogenic Assay Kit

The FAP Fluorogenic Assay Kitis designed to measure FAP (fibroblast activation protein) protease activity for screening and profiling applications. It comes in a convenient 96-well format, with purified recombinant FAP enzyme (amino acids 29-760), DPP substrate, and DPP assay buffer for 100 enzyme reactions.The DPP fluorogenic substrate is incubated with a sample containing FAP enzyme to produce a fluorophore that can then be measured using a fluorescence reader.Figure 1:Illustration of the assay principle.Fluorogenic DPP Substrate 1 is a fluorogenic peptide substrate (Ala-Pro-AMC dipeptide) . In the conjugated form the energy emitted from the fluorochrome AMC is quenched. Proteolysis releases AMC and fluorescence is emitted. The increase in fluorescence is directly proportional to FAP activity.Need us to run inhibitor screens or profile your compounds against FAP?
