FLUOROGENIC PEPTIDE SUBSTRATES FOR IN SOLUTION AND SOLID PHASE FACTOR XA MEASUREMENTS

摘要

The measurement of Factor Xa (FXa) enzymatic activity using novel fluorogenic peptide substrates that have a C-terminus cleavable fluorophore and optionally the ability to attach to a solid support. Fluorogenic measurements increase sensitivity and flexibility of measurements of enzymatic reactions over traditional absorbance-based approaches. The measurement of FXa generation is applicable to a range of biological reactions.
