Description:Acetyl-asp-glu-val-asp-7-amido-4-methylcoumarin, commonly referred to as a peptide substrate, is a synthetic compound often used in biochemical research, particularly in studies involving proteases and enzyme activity. This compound features a peptide backbone composed of four amino acids: aspartic acid (Asp), glutamic acid (Glu), and valine (Val), linked together in a specific sequence. The presence of the 7-amido-4-methylcoumarin moiety serves as a fluorescent reporter group, allowing for the monitoring of enzymatic reactions through fluorescence measurements. This characteristic makes it particularly valuable in assays for proteolytic enzymes, where the cleavage of the peptide bond releases the fluorescent signal. The compound is typically soluble in organic solvents and exhibits stability under standard laboratory conditions. Its design allows for specificity in enzyme-substrate interactions, making it a useful tool in both basic and applied research in biochemistry and molecular biology.
