Assay Procedure
  • Activation Buffer: 50 mM MES, 50 mM NaCl, pH 5.5
  • Assay Buffer: 50 mM Tris, pH 7.5
  • Recombinant Human Granzyme B (rhGranzyme B) (Catalog # 2906-SE)
  • Recombinant Mouse Active Cathepsin C/DPPI (rmCathepsin C) (Catalog # 2336-CY)
  • Substrate: t-Butyloxycaronyl-Ala-Ala-Asp-ThioBenzyl ester (SM Biochemicals LLC, Catalog # SMSB05), 10 mM stock in DMSO
  • 5,5’-dithio-bis (2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB) (Sigma, Catalog # D-8130), 10 mM stock in DMSO
  • (optional) E-64 (Tocris, Catalog # 5208), 50 mM stock in DMSO
  • 96-well Clear Plate (Costar, Catalog # 92592)
  • Plate Reader (Model: SpectraMax Plus by Molecular Devices) or equivalent
  1. Activate rhGranzyme B at 100 µg/mL with 10 µg/mL active rmCathepsin C in Activation Buffer.
  2. Incubate at 37 °C for 4 hours. (Optional: use 10 μM E-64 in activation buffer to stop activating enzyme, this is not required under these conditions).
  3. Dilute activated rhGranzyme B to 0.5 ng/µL in Assay Buffer.
  4. Dilute Substrate to 200 µM in Assay Buffer containing 200 µM DTNB.
  5. In a plate load 50 µL of 0.5 ng/µL rhGranzyme B.  Include a Substrate Blank containing 50 µL of Assay Buffer.
  6. Start the reaction by adding 50 µL of Substrate mixture to wells.
  7. Read in kinetic mode for 5 minutes at an absorbance of 405 nm.
  8. Calculate specific activity:

     Specific Activity (pmol/min/µg) =

Adjusted Vmax* (OD/min) x well volume (L) x 1012 pmol/M
ext. coeff** (M-1cm-1) x path corr.*** (cm) x amount of enzyme (µg)

     *Adjusted for Substrate Blank
      **Using the extinction coefficient 13260 M-1cm-1
      ***Using the path correction 0.32 cm
     Note: the output of many spectrophotometers is in mOD Per Well:
  • rhGranzyme B: 0.025 µg
  • DTNB: 100 µM
  • Substrate: 100 µM

Background

Granzyme B is a member of the granzyme family of the serine proteases found specifically in the cytotoxic granules of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) and natural killer (NK) cells (1, 2). Granzyme B plays an essential role in granule-mediated apoptosis and may have additional roles in rheumatoid arthritis and in bacterial and viral infections (3). It activates various caspases and cleaves proteins such as aggrecan (3). Human Granzyme B is synthesized as a precursor (247 residues) with a signal peptide (residues 1-18), a pro peptide (residues 19-20), and a mature chain (residues 21-247) (4-6). The rhGranzyme B consisting of residues 19-247 was expressed and purified. After being activated by active cathepsin C, rhGranzyme B cleaves a thioester substrate described previously (3).
