Description

Mca-KKVAPYPME-Dap(Dnp)–NH2 (UbiQ-141) is a fluorogenic reagent for monitoring ATP dependant protease activity like in the 26S proteasome and ClpP protease. Because it is longer than standard tri/tetra peptide based assay reagents, UbiQ-141 is not processed by the 20S CP alone and activating factors are required.

Key Characteristics:

  • only processed by activated proteasomes
  • exhibits a much more pronounced stimulation of proteasome activity than tetrapeptide based proteasome activity assay reagents
  • processed by human and bacterial proteasomes
