Analysis Note

The CPA activity assay is based on the hydrolysis of the substrate N-(4-methoxyphenylazoformyl)-Phe-OH. The substrate has a strong absorption peak at 350 nm (εmM = 19.0). The reaction progression is reflected by a decrease in absorption at 350 nm.[1]

Application

The Carboxypeptidase A Assay Kit allows for the determination of CPA activity in biological samples, as well as screening for enzyme inhibitors. The kit contains all the necessary components including a carboxypeptidase A control enzyme and carboxypeptidase inhibitor.

General description

Carboxypeptidase A (CPA) catalyzes the hydrolysis of C-terminal aromatic or aliphatic amino acids of proteins or peptides. Carboxypeptidase A is found in the pancreas and mast cells. Carboxypeptidase A in mast cells (MC-CPA) is a highly conserved secretory granule protease that is important for mast cell differentiation.[2] MC-CPA levels rise during anaphylaxis, a severe acute allergic reaction.[3] This enzyme is considered to be a sensitive marker for anaphylaxis, much more sensitive than the present marker tryptase. It has been suggested that MC-CPA can degrade snake venom components and honeybee venoms, thus having a protective function during envenomation.[4]

Other Notes

1 unit will hydrolyze 1 μmole of N-(4-methoxyphenylazoformyl)-Phe-OH per minute at pH 8 at 25 °C.

N-(4-Methoxyphenylazoformyl)-L-phenylalanine is efficiently cleaved by the enzyme bovine carboxypeptidase A into fragments anisole, molecular nitrogen, carbonate, and phenylalanine, in the course of which an intense spectral absorption of the substrate (epsilon350 = 19,000 M-1 cm-1) disappears completely.

Snake or honeybee envenomation can cause substantial morbidity and mortality, and it has been proposed that the activation of mast cells by snake or insect venoms can contribute to these effects. We show, in contrast, that mast cells can significantly

Mast cell carboxypeptidase A (Mc-cpa) is a highly conserved secretory granule protease. The onset of expression in mast cell progenitors and lineage specificity suggest an important role for Mc-cpa in mast cells. To address the function of Mc-cpa, we generated
