Message: | Proteases are naturally present in all organisms. These enzymes are involved in a multitude of physiological reactions from simple digestion of food proteins to highly regulated cascades. Proteases can either break specific peptide bonds (limited proteolysis), depending on the amino acid sequence of a protein, or break down a complete peptide to amino acids (unlimited proteolysis). The activity can be a destructive change (abolishing a protein's function), an activation of a function (preform to mature form) or it can be a signal in a signaling pathway. Protease Activity Assay Kit is designed for the quantitative determination of proteases present in the protein sample. The assay uses fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-labeled casein as a general protease substrate.
