N-Benzoyl-glutaminyl-alanyl-arginyl-Rh110-D-proline

This asymmetric Rhodamine 110 substrates for trypsine, prostatin, and matriptase employs a simple and straight forward kinetics upon analysis. Absorption wave length 492 nm, emission wave length 529 nm. While the intact substrate is virtually non-fluorescent, fluorescence largely increases (approx.. 3500 fold) upon cleavage. Superior signal-to-noise ratio combined with high sensitivity. In Rh110 assays this substrate delivers much less false positive hits in synthetic product libraries than corresponding AMC (7-amino-4-methylcoumarin) substrates.
