The fluorescence of 9,10-dioxa-syn-3,4,6,7-tetramethylbimane (bimane) was found to be quenched in the presence of nitrated aromatic amino acid. Bimane peptides containing nitrated amino acid (1a, b) were shown to be useful fluorogenic substrates for the assay of angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE) from rabbit lung, similar to bimane substrate containing tryptophan (3) previously reported. Among these bimane substrates, substrate 3 was shown to be a potent fluorogenic substrate for microdetermination of the ACE level in human serum.
研究发现,在存在硝化芳香族氨基酸的情况下,9,10 - 二氧杂 - 顺 - 3,4,6,7 - 四甲基联二萘(联二萘)的荧光会被淬灭。含硝化氨基酸的联二萘肽(1a、b)被证明是用于检测兔肺血管紧张素I转化酶(ACE)的有效荧光底物,类似于先前报道的含色氨酸的联二萘底物(3)。在这些联二萘底物中,底物3被证明是用于微量测定人血清中ACE水平的有效荧光底物。
