Estimating the term…
The invention relates to a method for determining the substrate specificity of an enzymatic activity comprising the following steps: providing an assembly comprising a plurality of amino acid sequences on a planar surface of a support material, whereby the amino acids are directionally immobilised; contacting and/or incubating of an enzymatic activity with the assembly; and detection of a reaction between one of the amino acid sequences that are immobilised on the assembly and the enzymatic activity. According to the invention, during the reaction of the enzymatic activity with the assembly, a change in the molecular weight of at least one of the amino acid sequences takes place.
A method for determining the substrate specificity of an enzymatic activity comprising the following steps:
An assembly of a plurality of amino acid sequences on a surface wherein the amino acid sequences are directionally immobilised on the planar surface of a support material, characterised in that at least one of the amino acid sequences is a substrate for an enzymatic activity, wherein a change in the molecular weight takes place on the substrate as a result of the enzymatic activity.
A support comprising an assembly according to any one of the preceding claims.
