摘要: A new fluorimetric assay for the determination of prolyl endopeptidase (EC 3.4.21.26) was developed. The synthetic substrate Z-glycyl-prolyl-4-methylcoumarinyl-7-amide (0.2 mmol/l; 5 microliters), K-phosphate buffer (100 mmol/l, pH 7.5; 100 and serum (10 microliters) are incubated 120 min at 37 degrees C. reaction is stopped with acetic acid (1.5 mol/l; 500 released 7-amino-4-methylcoumarin measured fluorimetrically. mean value catalytic activity concentration in healthy volunteers 0.455 (SD = 0.092) mumol per litre minute. proposed procedure sensitive, robust, economical.
