TACE FRET substrate I that is derived from the cleavage sequence of pro-TNFa recognized by the TNFa-cleaving enzyme (TACE). TNFa is presumably shed from cell membranes by TNFa-cleaving enzyme (TACE). Incubation of the TACE substrate with recombinant human TACE gives a specific cleavage to restore the quenched fluorescence. The substrate is widely used to screen inhibitors of TNF-convertase.ONE-LETTER SEQUENCE: Dabcyl-LAQAVRSSSR-EDANSMOLECULAR FORMULA: C70H104N22O18S1MOLECULAR WEIGHT:1573.80STORAGE CONDITIONS: -20 5C, CAS REGISTRY NUMBER: [396716-14-6], SYNONYMS: DABCYL-TNF--EDANS (-4 to +6) (human)RESEARCH AREA: ApoptosisREFERENCES: A.J.
