General description

An internally quenched fluorogenic substrate peptide derived from the calpain-1 cleavage site of α-spectrin. It is not recognized by trypsin or α-chymotrypsin and serves as a sensitive and specific substrate for calpain-1 (Km = 4.6 µM; kcat = 11 s-1). Cleavage occurs at the Tyr-Gly bond and results in enhanced fluorescence. Excitation max: ~490 nm; emission max: ~518 nm.

Biochem/physiol Actions

The purpose of this study was to examine the role of mitochondria in postmortem calcium homeostasis and its effect on proteolysis and tenderness. We hypothesized that mitochondria buffer cytosolic calcium levels and delay the activation of calpain-1 and subsequently the
