Description
OverviewA highly sensitive and selective fluorogenic assay for the detection of Cathepsin L from human and mouse samples. Cathepsin L is detected with the fluorogenic substrate Z-Phe-Arg-AMC (Exc. max: 360 nm; Emi. max: 460 nm). Interference from Cathepsin B is eliminated by the incorporation of CA 074, a specific cathepsin B inhibitor. This kit is also useful for screening cathepsin L inhibitors.

    BackgroundCathepsin L is a lysosomal endoproteinase that belongs to the papain family of cysteine proteinases. It plays a major role in antigen processing, tumor metastasis, bone resorption, and turnover of intracellular and secreted regulatory proteins. It degrades many protein substrates, some of which include collagen, IL-8 precursor, neurotransmitter precursor, pro-enkephalin, and immunoglobulin light chain-associated (AL) amyloid deposits. It is also responsible for cleaving other proenzymes, like Cathepsin D, resulting in enzyme activation. Increased Cathepsin L activity is linked to some cancers including prostate and colorectal cancers and melanoma, where it promotes degradation of extracellular matrix and basement membrane that lead to tumor metastasis. It also plays a role in the pathology of degenerative cartilage and bone disorders. Cathepsin L homozygous knockout mice are reported to have a significant reduction in bone volume. Additionally, Cathepsin L-deficient mice exhibit distinct defects in MHC class II processing in thymic cortical epithelial cells. Goulet, et al, 2004, report that a truncated, alternative active form of the enzyme is involved in the regulation of cell cycle progression via translocation to the nucleus, where it fully activates the transcription factor, CDP/Cux. Cathepsin B is a closely related proteinase that generally resides in the same cellular compartments as Cathepsin L and is known to cleave the same or similar substrates. As a result of this close association, it is also present in Cathepsin L-containing samples, making it difficult to distinguish Cathepsin L activity from Cathepsin B and vice versa. The InnoZyme™ Cathepsin L Activity Kit, Fluorogenic is designed to assess the activity of Cathepsin L without interference from Cathepsin B.
    Principles of the assayThe InnoZyme™ Cathepsin L Activity Kit, Fluorogenic utilizes a fluorogenic peptide substrate, Z-Phe-Arg-7-amido-4-methylcoumarin, HCl, in an enzyme cleavage assay to measure the activity of Cathepsin L in a 96-Well Plate. The Substrate can also be cleaved by Cathepsin B, whose activity in crude samples must first be inhibited by the addition of CA 074 Inhibitor, a specific and irreversible Cathepsin B inhibitor. Cathepsin L activity in biological samples is measured in the presence of CA 074 Inhibitor alone and in the presence of CA 074 Inhibitor and the irreversible Cathepsin L Inhibitor (Z-FY(t-Bu)-DMK). Cleavage of the Substrate by Cathepsin L releases AMC and the fluorescence is measured at 360 nm excitation and 460 nm emission. The readout is reported as relative fluorescent units (RFU). RFU of the samples are determined by subtracting the RFU as measured in the presence of CA 074 Inhibitor and Cathepsin L Inhibitor from the RFU measured in the presence of CA 074 Inhibitor alone. The unit activity of Cathepsin L can be determined by generating a calibration curve using the AMC Calibration Standard. The assay is optimized for use with a 96-Well Plate, but can be adapted to a cuvette format.

    When using the assay to assess the activity of purified Cathepsin L, the addition of CA 074 is not necessary. Cathepsin L activity in purified preparations is measured in the presence and absence of Cathepsin L Inhibitor. For unknown inhibitor screening, activity is also measured in the presence and absence of unknown inhibitor(s). RFU of the samples are determined by subtracting the RFU as measured in the presence of Cathepsin L Inhibitor from the RFU measured in the absence of Cathepsin L Inhibitor.

    Interference from other lysosomal, cysteine proteinases is minimal; <1 % for human cathepsin B, H, and S, and <2 % for human cathepsin K.

    CalculationsAssay with AMC Calibration: It is recommended that the data be handled by a software package utilizing a linear regression curve-fitting program. If a software package is not available, construct a standard curve by plotting the mean fluorescence in relative fluorescence units (RFU), for each standard on the Y-axis versus the corresponding concentration of AMC on the X-axis and draw a best-fit curve through the points on the graph. A. Final RFU for Cathepsin L Sample with CA074 = (Crude (initial) RFU value for Cathepsin L Sample with CA074) - (RFU of Blank) B. Final RFU for Cathepsin L Sample with CA074 and cathepsin L inhibitor = (Crude RFU for Cathepsin L Sample with CA 074 and cathepsin L inhibitor) - (RFU of Blank) C. Corrected RFU for Cathepsin L sample = Final RFU from A - Final RFU from B The Cathepsin L activity of unknown samples, using the final RFU, can be interpolated from the standard curve and displayed as an amount of free AMC released/mg protein in a specified time period. Assay without AMC Calibration: All biological samples should be assayed in duplicate and in parallel with two different conditions, in the presence of both CA 074 Inhibitor and Cathepsin L Inhibitor and in the presence of CA 074 Inhibitor alone. The initial Cathepsin L activity, displayed as RFU, is calculated by subtracting the RFU value for CA 074 Inhibitor + Cathepsin L Inhibitor from the RFU value for CA 074 Inhibitor only. The final Cathepsin L activity in each sample is displayed in RFU and is derived by subtracting the value of the blank from the initial RFU and then calculating the mean fluorescence value for duplicate samples. If the samples were diluted, the final Cathepsin L activity, as calculated above, is multiplied by the dilution factor to obtain the final Cathepsin L activity.
