Characterizing Cathepsin G Activity

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
One U/mL cathepsin G was defined as the concentration of enzyme that releases one nanomole/mL.sec from N-succinyl-Ala-Ala-Pro-Phe-p-nitroanilide (Chromogenix, Antwerp, Belgium), at pH 7.5 and 37 °C. According to this definition, human neutrophil cathepsin G from Calbiochem (95% pure by SDS-PAGE) had a specific activity of 35 U/mg, compared to 60 U/mg for the purified human leukocyte cathepsin G from Sigma.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
