Product Description
Suc-Ala-Glu-Pro-Phe-pNA (Suc-AEPF-pNA) is a chromogenic substrate for peptidyl prolyl isomerase Pin1. Suc-Ala-Glu-Pro-Phe-pNA may be utilized to evaluate the inhibitory effect of target compounds on Pin1, the catalytic activity of Pin1, etc.
Suc-Ala-Glu-Pro-Phe-pNA (Suc-AEPF-pNA) is a chromogenic synthetic tetrapeptide substrate specifically designed for the peptidylprolyl isomerase (PPIase) Pin1. This substrate releases p-nitroaniline (pNA) upon enzymatic cleavage, enabling quantitative and continuous measurement of Pin1 enzymatic activity in high-throughput screening and mechanistic studies.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase Pin1 (PPIase) is the primary molecular target. This enzyme catalyzes the isomerization of the peptide bond preceding a proline residue, which regulates the conformation and function of phosphorylated proteins involved in cell cycle progression and oncogenesis. The substrate is cleaved by Pin1 at the Pro-Phe bond.
ln Vitro
In cell-free assays, Suc-Ala-Glu-Pro-Phe-pNA is a highly specific chromogenic substrate for Pin1. Upon enzymatic cleavage, pNA is released, producing a bright yellow color measurable at 390-405 nm. The Michaelis constant (Km) for Pin1 is in the low micromolar range. This substrate can be used to evaluate the inhibitory effect of candidate compounds on Pin1 and to determine the catalytic activity of purified Pin1 enzyme.
Enzyme Assay
A typical enzyme kinetic assay: Pin1 (0.1-1 uM) is incubated with varying concentrations of Suc-Ala-Glu-Pro-Phe-pNA (0-500 uM) in an assay buffer (35 mM HEPES, pH 7.8, 75 mM NaCl, 0.05% Tween-20, and 5 mM DTT) at 25degC. The increase in absorbance at 390 nm (ε = 12,000 M-¹cm-¹) is monitored continuously for 5-10 minutes. Initial reaction rates are plotted against substrate concentration to determine kinetic parameters.
Cell Assay
For cellular experiments, cells are lysed and the lysate is incubated with Suc-Ala-Glu-Pro-Phe-pNA (100-400 uM) in the assay buffer for 60-120 minutes at 37degC. The absorbance at 390 nm is measured to determine cellular Pin1 activity. Specific Pin1 inhibitors (e.g., juglone or PiB) can be used to confirm that the measured activity is due to Pin1.
Animal Protocol
There is no standard in vivo protocol for this substrate, as it is a cell-impermeable chromogenic reagent designed for in vitro use. For in vivo Pin1 activity studies, alternative approaches such as fluorescent probes or bioluminescent substrates are used. Suc-AEPF-pNA is strictly a biochemical assay tool.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
PK properties are not applicable as this substrate is not administered in vivo. It is formulated as a stock solution (10-50 mM) in DMSO or in assay buffer (with 5-10% DMSO) for enzymatic assays. Stock solutions should be stored at -20degC and protected from light to prevent degradation.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicity of Suc-Ala-Glu-Pro-Phe-pNA is low at typical assay concentrations (10-500 uM). The released pNA product is moderately toxic if ingested, but at laboratory scale, standard safety precautions (gloves, lab coat) are sufficient. Avoid skin contact and inhalation of powder. The compound is for research use only.
