This study developed a novel biosensor using fluorogenic peptide substrates to detect multiple enzyme activities in human plasma. The method efficiently deconvolutes protease signals, enabling real-time diagnostics for complex enzyme mixtures.

Area of Science:

  • Biochemistry
  • Analytical Chemistry
  • Biotechnology

Background:

  • Human plasma contains numerous proteases involved in critical biological processes.
  • Accurate detection of individual enzyme activities in complex mixtures is challenging.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a biosensor for detecting multiple enzyme activities in human plasma.
  • To create a database for deconvoluting individual enzyme signals.
  • To enable real-time diagnostic biosensing of complex protease mixtures.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a microarray of glycerol nanodroplets with fluorogenic peptide substrates.
  • Employed a library of 361 fluorogenic substrates to assay 10 different plasma proteases.
  • Developed deconvolution protocols including optimal substrate selection and error minimization.
