A synthetic chromogenic substrate for the determination of serinic and thiol proteases, e.g. urokinase, trypsin, cathepsin B, cathepsin L, and papain.

N-alpha-Z-L-lysine 4-nitrophenyl ester hydrochloride is a protease that belongs to the family of serine proteases. It is produced by the biotechnological process of enzymatic extraction from the natural polysaccharide carrageenan. This product has been used in the production of high yield and purified enzymes for industrial applications. The enzyme has been shown to have cysteine and hydrolytic activity, as well as being able to break peptidic bonds in peptides. N-alpha-Z-L-lysine 4-nitrophenyl ester hydrochloride also has a high specificity for proteolytic cleavage of proteins at their carboxy terminal end.
