摘要
Structure-based iterative design was used to prepare a disulfide-containing nonapeptide as a fluorimetric probe for chemical and biochemical disulfide forming and breaking reactions. The peptide is composed entirely of natural amino acids and exhibits a marked (42%) change in fluorescence between its oxidized and its reduced states. The probe is easily synthesized and highly water soluble and exhibits well-behaved kinetics on reduction with the reductant tris-carboxyethylphosphine. The reduced peptide is an excellent substrate of the enzyme quiescin-sulfhydryl oxidase and may find utility in the characterization of other disulfide oxidoreductases. (C) 2003 Elsevier Inc.
