Endothelin-converting enzyme-1 (ECE-1) is a membrane-bound zinc-metallopeptidase that is related to neprilysin in amino acid sequence. A major in vivo function of ECE-1 is the proteolytic conversion of big endothelin-1 to endothelin-1, one of the most potent vasconstricting peptides known. Although

Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) systems in which a peptide sequence contains both a fluorophore and an internal quencher are amongst the best methods available for protease analysis and characterization. Numerous proteases have been studied using this method, including trypsin which cl
A new fluorescence quenching method has been developed to determine nitrite in water and food samples. The method is based on the reaction between nitrite and the fluorescent indole to form a compound which has no fluorescence in acidic medium. The fluorescence intensity was measured in 1 cm quartz
