Suc-AAPF-pNA
Based on 2 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Suc-AAPF-pNA (Suc-Ala-Ala-Pro-Phe-pNA) is a chromogenic p-nitroanilide (pNA) substrate with the Km of 1.7 mM. Cleavage of Suc-AAPF-pNA releases 4-nitroaniline, which is yellow in colour and can be measured spectrophotometrically. Suc-AAPF-pNA can be used for the measurement of free and membrane-bound cathepsin G in human neutrophils.

Biological Activity
The elastase activity is measured as activity against the substrate Suc-AAPF-Pna. Aliquots (10 μL) of SmCTF samples are incubated at 30 °C with 200 μM Suc-AAPF-pNA and the activity of cercarial elastase measured as abosorbance at 400 nm[2].
Proteolytic activity is measured by hydrolysis of the substrate suc-AAPF-pNA. Serial dilutions of the proteases are made in 100 mM Tris buffer, pH 8.6, containing 10 mM CaCl2. Enzyme activity is measured at 25°C in 100 mM Tris/HCl, pH 8.6 containing 1.6 mM suc-AAPF-pNA, 0.0005% Tween-80 and 1% DMSO by monitoring the absorbance change at 410 nm using a spectrophotometer. Each dilution of enzyme is tested in triplicate[3].

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.00 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
