Product Information

• Name: N-(Aminoethyl)-5-naphthylamine-1-sulfonic acid
• Synonyms: EDANS
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: The Michaelis-Menten kinetics of N-(Aminoethyl)-5-naphthylamine-1-sulfonic acid (NENSA) have been determined by studying the reaction of NENSA with a variety of acceptors. Basic fibroblasts were found to be a good substrate for this compound and it was shown that proteolytic activity is required for the hydrolysis of NENSA. The toxin is also reactive with the enzyme polymerase chain, which inhibits bacterial growth. In the presence of epidermal growth factor, NENSA has been shown to inhibit proliferation in fetal bovine retinal cells and human epidermal keratinocytes.
