Biological Application of FRET – Protease Detection

In recent years, FRET based assays have found broad applications, one of which is the detection of protease activity. Proteases play key roles in protein activation, cell regulation and signaling, as well as in the generation of amino acids for protein synthesis or utilization in metabolic pathways.

FRET-based assays have made the detection of protease activity and High Throughput Screening of protease inhibitors faster and easier. AnaSpec, a world leader in FRET peptide technology, is proud to be the first in the industry to offer long wavelength protease assays for:

Cathepsins D, S
HCV (Hepatitis C Virus)
HIV
MMPs
α- (TACE), ß-Secretase (BACE1)
Renin
and WNV (West Nile Virus)

ClearPoint Peptides

With ClearPoint™ peptides from AnaSpec, absolute protein quantitation (AQUA) has become a lot clearer.

The use of mass spectrometry (MS) has helped advanced proteomics research by providing qualitative information of thousands of known and unknown proteins. By spiking protein tryptic digests with internal heavy isotope labelled peptide standards, MS becomes an absolute quantitation (AQUA) method.1

AnaSpec’s ClearPoint™ peptides offer a choice of heavy hydrogen (²H), carbon (¹³C), or nitrogen (¹⁵N)-isotopes specifically labelled at single, multiple or universal positions. With triple-stage validation (both mass spec & HPLC) and over 8 years of successful synthesis, ClearPoint™ peptides are the proven solution for optimum quality heavy isotope labeled peptides.
