1. Dilute rmProstasin to 20 µg/mL in Assay Buffer.
2. Dilute Substrate to 200 µM in Assay Buffer.
3. Load into a black well plate 50 µL of 20 µg/mL rmProstasin and start the reaction by adding 50 µL of 200 µM Substrate. As a Substrate Blank combine 50 µL of Assay Buffer and 50 µL of 200 µM Substrate.
4. Read at excitation and emission wavelengths of 380 nm and 460 nm (top read), respectively, in kinetic mode for 5 minutes.
5. Calculate specific activity:

     **Derived using calibration standard 7-amino, 4-Methyl Coumarin (Sigma, Catalog # A-9891).

• rmProstasin: 1 µg
• Substrate: 100 µM
