- Assay Buffer: 25 mM Tris, pH 8.0
- Recombinant Mouse Aminopeptidase PILS/ARTS1 (rmARTS1) (Catalog # 2500-ZN)
- Substrate: Leu-AMC (Bachem, Catalog # I-1240)
- F16 Black Maxisorp Plate (Nunc, Catalog # 475515)
- Fluorescent Plate Reader (Model: SpectraMax Gemini EM by Molecular Devices) or equivalent
- Dilute rmARTS1 to 2 µg/mL in Assay Buffer.
- Dilute Substrate to 200 µM in Assay Buffer.
- Load 50 µL of the 2 µg/mL rmARTS1 into a plate, and start the reaction by adding 50 µL of 200 µM Substrate. Include a Substrate Blank containing 50 µL Assay Buffer and 50 µL of 200 µM Substrate.
- Read at excitation and emission wavelengths of 380 nm and 460 nm, respectively, in kinetic mode for 5 minutes.
- Calculate specific activity:
Specific Activity (pmol/min/µg) = | Adjusted Vmax* (RFU/min) x Conversion Factor** (pmol/RFU) |
amount of enzyme (µg) |
*Adjusted for Substrate Blank
**Derived using calibration standard 7-amino, 4-Methyl Coumarin AMC (Sigma, Catalog # A-9891).
- rmARTS1: 0.1 µg
- Substrate: 100 µM
The mouse ARTS1 gene encodes aminopeptidase PILS (Puromycin-Insensitive Leucyl-Specific), which is also known as adipocyte-derived leucine aminopeptidase, type 1 tumor necrosis factor receptor shedding aminopeptidase regulator and ERAAP (the aminopeptidase associated with antigen processing in the endoplasmic reticulum) (1-3). The deduced amino acid sequence of mouse ARTS1 consists of a signal peptide and a large ectodomain. Widely expressed and releasing an N‑terminal amino acid (Leu), the enzyme may play a role in many processes such as antigen processing and angiogenesis.
