Answer:

Enzyme activity assays can be used for disease diagnosis and novel drug development validation. Understanding how well a key enzyme function in a physiological process often reveals early signs of disease that has a long latency period. Synthetic peptide substrates are useful tools for MMP activity assays

Enzyme assays are performed to serve two different purposes: (i) to identify a special enzyme, to prove its presence or absence in a distinct specimen, like an organism or a tissue, and (ii) to determine the amount of the enzyme in the sample.

Enzymatic activity assays are predominately performed by researchers to identify the presence or quantity of a specific enzyme in an organism, tissue, or sample. Examples of such enzymes include α-amylase, catalase, laccase, peroxidase, lysozyme, reporter enzymes alkaline phosphatase, and luciferase.
