ANTIPAIN DIHYDROCHLORIDE 1PC X 10MG

General description

A reversible protease inhibitor produced by actinomycetes. Inhibits cathepsin A and B as well as papain, and trypsin-like serine proteases. Acts by forming a hemiacetal adduct between the aldehyde group of the inhibitor and the active proteinase. Effective at concentrations range from 1 to 100 µM.

Effective concentration: 1-100 µM.

Peptidyl arginine aldehyde protease inhibitor produced by actinomycetes. Inhibitor of Ca²⁺-dependent endopeptidases. Has specificity similar to Leupeptin (Cat. No. 108975). Inhibits trypsin-like serine proteases, papain and some cysteine proteases (IC₅₀ = 300 µM).
