Enzo Life Sciences Matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) fluorometric drug discovery kit, RED (1x96wells)

Supplier: Enzo Life Sciences BMLAK3010001

The MMP-1 Fluorometric (also known as fluorimetric) Drug Discovery Kit, RED is a complete assay system designed to screen MMP-1 inhibitors using a quenched fluorogenic substrate OMNIMMP RED: TQ3-GABA-Pro-Cha-Abu-Smc-His-Ala-Dab(6-TAMRA)-Ala-Lys-NH2 [TQ3=quencher; GABA=4-aminobutyric acid; Cha=L-cyclohexylalanine; Abu=2-aminobutyric acid; Smc=S-methyl-L-cysteine; Dab=2,4-diaminobutyric acid; 6-TAMRA=6-tetramethylrhodamine]. TAMRA fluorescence is thoroughly quenched by the TQ3 group until cleavage by MMPs separates the two moieties. The assays are performed in a convenient 96-well microplate format. The kit is useful to screen inhibitors of MMP-1, a potential therapeutic target. The compound NNGH is also included as a prototypic control inhibitor. Alternative name: Interstitial collagenase, Fibroblast collagenase. Applications: Fluorescent detection, HTS Activity assay.
