AdipoGen 6-Amino-D-luciferin

Supplier: AdipoGen CDXA0306M005

Chemical. CAS 161055-47-6. Formula C11H9N3O2S2. MW 279.34. Synthetic. Amino analog of the common D-luciferin substrate for use in measuring firefly luciferase activity. This cell permeable reagent can be used when considering design of proluminescent bioconjugates peptidase substrates of luciferin for ultrasensitive luminescent assays. In bioluminescent protease assays peptides or amino acids are conjugated to the luciferin analog 6-amino-D-luciferin. These substrates are useful for ultrasensitive analysis of a variety of protease enzymes including various caspases and cathepsins, chymotrypsin, trypsin, elastase, kallikrein, thrombin, ficin, bromoalain, plasmin, papain, ficin and many others or even for use in vivo tracing of luciferase transfected cells in living tissues. The resulting bioluminescence spectrum of reaction of 6-Amino-D-luciferin is very similar to that observed for the natural substrate D-luciferin.
