General description

An internally quenched, highly cathepsin K-selective, fluorogenic peptide substrate that is efficiently cleaved by CatK (kcat/Km = 0.426 µM-1 S-1), but not by Cathepsins B/L/S/F/H/V. Studies using WT and CatK-/- mice reveal that the substrate is not cleaved by other proteolytic enzymes present in fibroblast lysates.
