As mediators of inflammatory and allergic response, mast cells are found throughout the body concentrated near blood vessels in connective tissue and the mucous membranes of the respiratory and gastrointestinal tract (3). Upon activation, human mast cells release granules that are enriched with neutral serine proteases including Tryptases, chymase and cathepsin G (4). Tryptase gamma -1, also called transmembrane Tryptase, is encoded by TPSG1, one of many serine protease genes clustered in human chromosome 16p13.3 (5). Human Tryptase gamma -1 is synthesized as a 321 amino acid preproenzyme with a C-terminal transmembrane anchor (1, 2). The rhTPSG1 was expressed as a soluble protein terminated at residue 281 and corresponded to the proenzyme. The proenzyme can be cleaved by trypsin to form the active enzyme. The serine protease activity of trypsin-activated rhTPSG1 can be inhibited by ecotin (R&D Systems, Catalog # 1328-PI). Greater than 95% protease activity is inhibited by ecotin at approximately 10:1 molar ratio.

Materials
- Activation Buffer: 50 mM Tris, 10 mM CaCl2, 150 mM NaCl, 0.05% (w/v) Brij 35, pH 7.5 (TCNB)
- Assay Buffer: 0.1M Tris, pH 8.0
- Recombinant Human Tryptase gamma ‑1/TPSG1 (rhTPSG1) (Catalog # 1667-SE)
- Trypsin, (Sigma, Catalog # T-1426)
- Recombinant Human Serpin A1/ alpha 1‑Antitrypsin (rhSerpin-A1) (Catalog # 1268-PI)
- Substrate: MCA-Arg-Pro-Lys-Pro-Val-Glu-NVAL-Trp-Arg-Lys(DNP)-NH2 (Catalog # ES002), 2 mM stock in DMSO

- Dilute rhTPSG1 to 100 µg/mL in Activation Buffer.
- Dilute Trypsin to 0.4 µg/mL in Activation Buffer.
- Combine equal volumes of 100 µg/mL rhTPSG1 and 0.4 µg/mL Trypsin. Include a control containing Activation Buffer in place of rhTPSG1 (Trypsin control).
- Incubate at 37 °C for 2 hours.
- Dilute rhSerpin-A1 to 18.2 µg/mL in Assay Buffer.
- Add rhSerpin-A1 to the reaction mixture making a one half dilution for final concentrations of 9.1 µg/mL rhSerpin-A1, 25 µg/mL rhTPSG1, and 0.1 µg/mL Trypsin. Addition of rhSerpin-A1 will stop the activity of Trypsin. Control from step three will verify that rhSerpin-A1 is working correctly.
- Incubate all samples for 15 minutes at room temperature.
