Biological Activity
N-Acetyl-Ser-dAsp-Lys-Pro is degraded specifically by ACE, and its plasma level rises substantially during ACE inhibitor therapy. Flow cytometry of rat cardiac fibroblasts treated with N-Acetyl-Ser-dAsp-Lys-Pro shows significant inhibition of the progression of cells from G0/G1 phase to S phase of the cell cycle. Moreover, phosphorylation and nuclear translocation of Smad2 is decreased in cardiac fibroblasts treated with N-Acetyl-Ser-dAsp-Lys-Pro[1]. N-acetyl-seryl-daspartyl-lysyl-proline appears to exert this function by blocking the action of a stem cell-specific proliferation stimulator and acts selectively on quiescent progenitors[2]. N-Acetyl-Ser-dAsp-Lys-Pro inhibits collagenase expression and activation is associated with increased expression of TIMP-1 and TIMP-2. N-Acetyl-Ser-dAsp-Lys-Pro normalizes the IL-1β-mediated increase in MMP-2 and MMP-9 activities and MMP-13 expression[3].

Peptide Solubility and Storage Guidelines:
1. Calculate the length of the peptide.
2. Calculate the overall charge of the entire peptide according to the following table:
| Contents | Assign value | |
|---|---|---|
| Acidic amino acid | Asp (D), Glu (E), and the C-terminal -COOH. | -1 |
| Basic amino acid | Arg (R), Lys (K), His (H), and the N-terminal -NH2 | +1 |
| Neutral amino acid | Gly (G), Ala (A), Leu (L), Ile (I), Val (V), Cys (C), Met (M), Thr (T), Ser (S), Phe (F), Tyr (Y), Trp (W), Pro (P), Asn (N), Gln (Q) | 0 |
3. Recommended solution:
| Overall charge of peptide | Details |
|---|---|
| Negative (<0) |
1. Try to dissolve the peptide in water first. 2. If water fails, add NH4OH (<50 μL). 3. If the peptide still does not dissolve, add DMSO (50-100 μL) to solubilize the peptide. |
| Positive (>0) |
1. Try to dissolve the peptide in water first. 2. If water fails, try dissolving the peptide in a 10%-30% acetic acid solution. 3. If the peptide still does not dissolve, try dissolving the peptide in a small amount of DMSO. |
| Zero (=0) |
1. Try to dissolve the peptide in organic solvent (acetonitrile, methanol, etc.) first. 2. For very hydrophobic peptides, try dissolving the peptide in a small amount of DMSO, and then dilute the solution with water to the desired concentration. |
