| Targets |
Z-Arg-AMC HCl targets trypsin, cathepsin B, and cathepsin H, which are proteases that cleave peptide bonds after arginine residues. The compound is a substrate for these enzymes; it contains an arginine residue that is recognized by the active site of the proteases. Upon enzymatic cleavage, the AMC fluorophore is released and its fluorescence (Ex/Em=355/460 nm) can be quantified. This property makes it a valuable tool for measuring protease activity.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, Z-Arg-AMC HCl is used as a fluorogenic substrate in enzymatic assays to measure protease activity. The compound is incubated with the enzyme, and the released AMC is detected by fluorescence spectroscopy. It can be used to study enzyme kinetics, screen for inhibitors, and monitor protease-related pathways involved in inflammation, apoptosis, and cancer progression.
|
| ln Vivo |
Z-Arg-AMC HCl does not have in vivo biological activity as a pharmacological agent. It is a substrate used in biochemical assays and is not intended for administration to animals or humans as a therapeutic. Its value is as a research tool for studying protease activity.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzymatic assays using Z-Arg-AMC HCl measure protease activity. The substrate is incubated with the enzyme (trypsin, cathepsin B, or cathepsin H) in a suitable buffer. The reaction is monitored by measuring the increase in fluorescence (Ex/Em=355/460 nm) over time. These assays are used to study enzyme kinetics and to screen for protease inhibitors.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cell-based assays for Z-Arg-AMC HCl are limited, as the compound is primarily used as a substrate in cell-free enzymatic assays. It may be used in cell culture supernatants or lysates to measure protease activity released from cells. However, specific protocols are not extensively documented.

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).

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
