Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  In Vitro hFAP Inhibition Assay
Description:  The enzymatic activity of hFAP on the substrate Z-Gly-Pro-AMC was measured at room temperature on a microtiter plate reader, monitoring the fluorescence at an excitation wavelength of 360 nm and an emission wavelength of 465 nm. The assay was performed by mixing the substrate (20 μM), hFAP (200 μM, constant), and the inhibitors in assay buffer (50 mM Tris, 1 M NaCl, 1 μg/mL BSA, pH=7.5), with serial dilution of the inhibitors ranging from 250 nM to 2 fM, 1:2 in a total volume of 20 μL. FAPI-46 was used as positive control. Experiments were performed in triplicate, and the mean fluorescence values were fitted using Graph Pad Prism 9 (equation used: Y=Bottom+(Top−Bottom)/(1+((X{circumflex over ( )}HillSlope)/(IC50{circumflex over ( )}HillSlope)))).
