7-Methoxycoumarin-4-acetyl-Pro-Leu-Gly-Leu-β-(2,4-dinitrophenylamino)Ala-Arg amide
7-Methoxycoumarin-4-acetyl-Pro-Leu-Gly-Leu-β-(2,4-dinitrophenylamino)Ala-Arg amide (CAS: 140430-53-1) is a highly specific, internally quenched substrate designed for the assay of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Upon enzymatic cleavage by MMPs, it yields the fluorescent product 7-methoxycoumarin-4-acetic acid (Mca). This peptide is crucial for biochemical and cell biology research, particularly in studies involving cell signaling, neuroscience, and the extracellular matrix.
