Carboxypeptidase A (CPA-1) is produced in the pancreas and is crucial to many processes in the human body to include digestion, post-translational modification of proteins, blood clotting, and reproduction. There are two proposed mechanisms for the catalytic function of carboxypeptidase A. The first is a nucleophilic pathway involving a covalent acyl enzyme intermediate containing active site base Glu-270. The second proposed mechanism is a promoted water pathway. This mechanism involves attack of a water molecule at the scissile peptide linkage of the substrate.

Store vial at -20° C or below prior to opening. This vial contains a relatively low volume of reagent (25 µL). To minimize loss of volume dilute 1:10 by adding 225 µL of the buffer stated above directly to the vial. Recap, mix thoroughly and briefly centrifuge to collect the volume at the bottom of the vial. Use this intermediate dilution when calculating final dilutions as recommended below. Store the vial at -20°C or below after dilution. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing.
