Synthetic prosthetogens and their use in enzyme linked assays

An enzyme linked immunoassay procedure in which a primary enzyme whose concentration is related to the presence of analyte to be detected catalyses a primary enzymic reaction leading to a detectable product; wherein a substrate for the primary enzyme is a synthetic compound which is cleaved by the p...

Zusammenfassung:An enzyme linked immunoassay procedure in which a primary enzyme whose concentration is related to the presence of analyte to be detected catalyses a primary enzymic reaction leading to a detectable product; wherein a substrate for the primary enzyme is a synthetic compound which is cleaved by the primary enzyme to product directly, or by one or more further reactions, a component essential for the catalytic activity of another enzyme, which is thereby activated to catalyse a secondary enzymic reaction leading to a detectable result. A synthetic prosthetogen compound which is cleavable by an enzyme to produce a component essential for the catalytic activity of another enzyme, or a precursor therefor.
