Urinary dipeptidase와 alanine dehydrogenase의 연쇄반응을 이용한 형광분석법을 개발하였다. 반응계는 기질로서 L-ala-ala, ${\beta}-NAD^+$, L-alanine dehydrogenase와 pH 9의 12.5mM sodium carbonate buffer를 포함하며 urinary dipeptidase를 가함으로써 반응을 시작했다. 생성된 NADH는 여기파장 340nm, 형광파장 460nm에서 측정했다. 기존의 glycyldehydrophenylalanine(Gdp)의 가수분해 방법과 형광분석법을 비교한 결과 0.996의 높은 상관계수를 나타냈으며 10배 이상의 감도 증가를 보였다.

Human renal dipeptidase (RDPase) was purified from surgically removed kdneys of renal stone aptients by affinity chromatography using its specific inhibitor, cilastain, as the ligand. The partial purified RDPase of 6 mg exhivited specific activity of 99.4 unit/mg with 2, 029 fold purification. it was composed of a slow moving major band (96%) and a fast moving minor band (4%). The minor band was not a contaminant as it showed a dipeptidase-specific activity. The kinetic parameters determined with glycyldehydrophenylalanine (Gdp) as synthetic substrate were Vmax, $322.6\;\mu{mol/min/mg}$ and km, 0.120 mM. This experiment provided biochemical evidences that sugically removed, nonfunctional kidneys in respect of glomerular filtration still retained high activity of renal dipeptidase.

Physico-chemical characterization of human renal dipeptidase was carried out. It was a glycoprotein with a subunit MW of approximately 47,700 dalton. The pH optimum was at 8 and its stable conformation was retained between pH 5 and 12. The kinetic parameters determined with imipenem, a noval ${\beta}-lactam$ antibiotic, were Vmax, $5.21\;\mu{mol/min/mg}$; km, 4.35 mM ; and Ki with cilastatin, $0.25\;\mu{M}$ Cilastatin demonstrated reversible competitive inhibition.
