  • Polypeptide substrate for the detection of von Williebrand factor cleaving protease ADAMTS13
    Patent number: 10538802
    Abstract: In a first aspect, there is provided an isolated polypeptide substrate for a disintegrin-like and metallopeptidase with thrombospondin type-1 motif, 13 (ADAMTS13) that is from 45 to 70 amino acids in length and has an amino acid sequence that is substantially similar to part of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2, with one or more of the following modifications: (i) the amino acid corresponding to position 1599 of SEQ ID NO: 2 is mutated from Q to K; (ii) the amino acid corresponding to position 1610 of SEQ ID NO: 2 is mutated from N to C; and (iii) the amino acids corresponding to Q1624 to R1641 of SEQ ID NO: 2 are deleted.
