General description

Chromogenic substrate for proteolytic activity; Digestion results in the formation of colored components, which are soluble in trichloroacetic acid and determined (after neutralization) in the range 366 to 450 nm.

Application

Suitable as substrate for proteolytic enzymes and useful for post-electrophoretic detection of proteases.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Can be used to induce secondary amyloidosis in mice, in studies of amyloid protein processing.

Azocasein, diffused into gels after polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, provides a useful substrate for simple and rapid protease detection. After electrophoresis, the gels are incubated in an azocasein solution, immersed in trichloroacetic acid and then treated with NaOH. Proteolytic zones appear

Serpins are evolutionarily conserved serine protease inhibitors that are widely distributed in animals, plants and microbes. In this study, we reported the cloning and functional characterizations of two novel serpin genes, HlSerpin-a and HlSerpin-b, from the hard tick Haemaphysalis longicornis
