Gly-Phe-β-naphthylamide

Gly-Phe-β-naphthylamide is a substrate of Cathepsin C (HY-P2922) and belongs to the lysosomal agonist. Gly-Phe-β-naphthylamide can freely pass through the cell membrane and organelle membrane. Gly-Phe-β-naphthylamide will be specifically hydrolyzed by Cathepsin C, ultimately leading to a permeability lysis when it enters the acidic compartment. Gly-Phe-β-naphthylamide can be used to study lysosomal hydrolysis, lysosomal membrane permeability, and the function of cathepsin C[1][2][3].
