摘要
The human tumor suppressor Fhit protein exhibits diadenosine triphosphatase activity, hydrolyzing Ap(3)A to AMP and ADP. We report that Fhit protein efficiently cleaves the fluorogenic Ap(3)A analog diethenoadenosine triphosphate giving support to establish a simple fluorimetric assay for quantification of Fhit enzyme. Fluorimetric assays were initially tested to demonstrate that diethyl pyrocarbonate and suramin inhibit Fhit enzyme. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
