Description

Chymostatin is a potent inhibitor of serine proteases, particularly chymotrypsin and related enzymes. It is widely utilized in biochemical research to study enzyme activity and protease-mediated processes. By selectively inhibiting chymotrypsin-like enzymes, Chymostatin helps researchers explore mechanisms in protein degradation, cell signaling, and other proteolytic pathways. Manufactured under strict GMP conditions, this compound ensures high purity and consistent quality, making it suitable for various in vitro and enzymatic assays in biomedical research.

Mechanism of Action & Research Applications:

Chymostatin acts as a competitive inhibitor of chymotrypsin and other serine proteases by binding to the active site, thus preventing substrate cleavage. This inhibition allows detailed study of protease function and protein degradation pathways in cell biology, cancer research, and enzymology. Chymostatin is also useful in studying apoptosis and inflammatory processes where protease activity is crucial.
