| Targets |
FAPGG targets angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), which is a key enzyme in the renin-angiotensin system that converts angiotensin I to the potent vasoconstrictor angiotensin II. As a substrate for ACE, FAPGG is not an inhibitor but is cleaved by the enzyme. The compound's utility lies in its ability to serve as a reporter for ACE activity, which is important in the study of hypertension and other cardiovascular diseases.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, FAPGG is used as a chromogenic substrate in a continuous spectrophotometric assay for ACE. The assay measures the decrease in absorbance at 340 nm as the substrate is cleaved by ACE. The rate of cleavage is proportional to enzyme activity. This allows for the sensitive and rapid determination of ACE activity in biological samples.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo applications of FAPGG are not typical, as it is primarily a research reagent for in vitro enzyme assays. It is not administered to living organisms for therapeutic purposes. Its use is confined to laboratory settings for measuring ACE activity in biological fluids.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
A cell-free assay for FAPGG involves incubating the substrate with a sample containing ACE and monitoring the decrease in absorbance at 340 nm over time. The reaction is typically carried out in a buffer at a specific pH and temperature. The initial rate of absorbance change is calculated and used to determine ACE activity. This is a standard method for measuring ACE activity in serum, plasma, and other biological fluids.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular experiments with FAPGG are not typical, as it is used as a biochemical reagent in cell-free enzyme assays rather than in cell-based studies.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal experiments are not applicable for FAPGG as it is a chromogenic substrate used in vitro.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
FAPGG has a molecular formula of C20H21N3O6 and a molecular weight of 399.40 g/mol. It is a solid. Specific pharmacokinetic properties are not applicable as it is not a therapeutic drug. It is used in vitro as a research reagent. For storage, it should be kept at -20°C.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicity data for FAPGG are not provided in the available sources. As a peptide substrate, it is generally considered to have low toxicity for its intended research applications. It is intended for research use only and is not for human consumption.

Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).
