SARS-CoV-2 Protease Assay Details
Study Example PLpro
The papain-like protease (PLpro) is responsible for cleavage of the coronavirus polyprotein necessary for virus assembly. PLpro also suppresses the host innate immune through the reversal of ubiquitination and ISGylation events. We offer the investigation of the proteolytic activity of PLpro for deubiquitination and for proteolysis of a peptide.
The PLpro assay allows for screening compounds using a fluorogenic substrate, either Z-RLRGG-AMC or Ubiquitin-AMC. PLpro cleaves the substrate for the release of AMC and the resulting fluorescence can be quantified with a luminometer for readout of PLpro enzymatic activity.
