General description

N-Succinyl-Ala-Ala-Val-Ala p-nitroanilide is a chromogenic and a synthetic peptide substrate for proteases, elastase and subtilisin.

Application

N-Succinyl-Ala-Ala-Val-Ala p-nitroanilide has been used as a synthetic peptide substrate for:
  • Bacillus pumilus alkaline protease (DHAP)
  • mesophilic subtilisin Carlsberg (sC) to assess the hydrolytic activity of wild-type and mutant sC
  • Pseudoalteromonas arctica cold-active protease (Pro21717)

Enzymes isolated from organisms found in cold habitats generally exhibit higher catalytic activity at low temperatures than their mesophilic homologs and are therefore known as cold-active enzymes. Cold-active proteases are very useful in a variety of biotechnological applications, particularly as
