  • Method for isolating inhibitors of protease activity
    Patent number: 6350586
    Abstract: The present invention provides an assay for detecting and quantifying protease that is sensitive, rapid, and capable of screening numerous samples of small volume. Also provided by the present invention is a method for diagnosing disorders associated with connective tissue destruction in a subject by detecting and quantifying a particular protease in a biological sample. Further provided by the present invention is a method of detecting inhibitors of the activity of a protease by detecting primary amines that are exposed by the enzymatic degradation of a protease substrate.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 5, 2001
    Date of Patent: February 26, 2002
    Assignee: Long Island Jewish Medical Center
    Inventors: Srinivasa K. Rao, Leslie Kushner, Mahesh Mathrubutham, Jon R. Cohen
