We have designed two radioactive substrates, hippuryl-L-[3H]phenylalanine and 3-(p-hydroxy, m-[125I]phenyl)propionic acid ([125I]Bolton reagent) derivative of L-arginyl-L-phenylalanine, i.e. [125I]BRF, for a highly sensitive assay of carboxypeptidase A (CPA) activity. After cleavage of the C-terminal phenylalanine residue by CPA, the radioactive product
