[Suc-Phe-Leu-Phe-SBzl--a new substrate for functional study of Escherichia coli ATP-dependent Lon-proteinase and its modified forms]
Abstract
A new efficient substrate, Suc-Phe-Leu-Phe-SBzl, was proposed for studying the function of the Escherichia coli ATP-dependent Lon protease and its modified forms. The kinetic parameters of hydrolysis of the substrate were determined. The esterase activity of protease Lon was found to be nucleotide-regulated.
