3CL Protease (B.1.1.529, Omicron Variant) (SARS-CoV-2) Assay Kit 返回列表页

The 3CL Protease (B.1.1.529, Omicron Variant) (SARS-CoV-2) Assay Kit is designed to measure the activity of P132H mutated, Omicron variant 3CL Protease for screening and profiling applications, in a homogeneous assay with no time-consuming washing steps.

The 3CL Protease Substrate is an internally quenched 14-mer fluorogenic peptide (DABCYL-KTSAVLQSGFRKME-EDANS). When the donor (EDANS) and acceptor (DABCYL) fluorophores are in close proximity, the energy emitted from EDANS is quenched by DABCYL (intact substrate). Upon proteolysis by 3CL, the peptide substrate is cleaved between glutamine and serine to generate the highly fluorescent peptide fragment (SGFRKME-EDANS). The fluorescence intensity increases proportionally to the activity of 3CL. More information on the substrate, including MW and structure, can be found on our website (BPS Bioscience, #79952).
