5-Bromo-2’-deoxyuridine is a thymidine analog and useful for the study of DNA synthesis where it is incorporated into DNA in place of thymidine. Measure DNA synthesis Label dividing cells Study cell signaling and processes that induce cell proliferation Used as a mutagen in…

Pepsin, an acid protease, contains a proteolytic enzyme. Pepsin contains the "cathepsin" component which has milk curdling activity. It has a broad range of substrate activity and demonstrates an esterase acitivity. It generally attacks peptide bonds. Pepsin is a peptidase used to…

Deoxyribonuclease from beef pancreas, DNase I, was first crystallized by Kunitz. It is an endonuclease which splits phosphodiester linkages, preferentially adjacent to a pyrimidine nucleotide yielding 5'-phosphate terminated polynucleotides with a free hydroxyl group on position 3'. The…

Ribonuclease belongs to pancreatic ribonuclease family. RNase A is an endoribonuclease that attacks at the 3¢ phosphate of a pyrimidine nucleotide. The sequence of pG-pG-pC-pA-pG will be cleaved to give pG-pG-pCp and A-pG. Ribonuclease A is used to remove RNA from DNA plasmid preparations…

A serine protease that hydrolyzes peptide bonds with aromatic or large hydrophobic side chains (Tyr, Trp, Phe, Met, Leu) on the carboxyl end of the bond. Produced from 3x Crystallized chymotrypsinogen Used to treat pancreatic insufficiency Used in traumatology Chymotrypsin…

Cell-permeable, reversible, substrate competitive tyrosine kinase inhibitor (including EGFR phosphorylation), implicated in almost all cell growth and proliferation signal cascades. Inhibitor of mammalian DNA topoisomerase II. Anticancer agent, inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis.…

Ribonuclease A, and to a greater extent its oligomers and some homologs (such as onconase from frogs), have cytotoxic and cytostatic effects, particularly on cancer cells.This attribute has led to the development of onconase as a cancer therapeutic. Ribonuclease A is used to remove RNA from DNA…

Hypolipemic cell permeable and irreversible pancreatic, gastric and carboxylester lipase inhibitor. Anti-obesity and antihypercholesterolemic compound. Antitumor compound by inhibition of the thioesterase domain of fatty acid synthase (FASN). Anti-proliferative. Causes cell cycle arrest at G1…

α-Chymotrypsin preferentially catalyzes the hydrolysis of peptide bonds involving L-isomers of tyrosine, phenylalanine, and tryptophan. It also readily acts upon amides and esters of susceptible amino acids. In addition to bonds involving aromatic amino acids, chymotrypsin catalyzes at a high…

Pepstatin A is a reversible inhibitor of aspartic proteases, Inhibitor for pepsin, renin, cathepsin D, cathepsin G, and other acid proteases. It does not inhibit thiol proteases, neutral proteases or serine proteases. Pepstatin forms a 1:1 complex with acid proteases (carboxyl proteases). …

Ribavarin is an antiviral compound reported to be active against RSV, HIV, HCV and other infectious agents. Its metabolite, ribavirin 5'-phosphate, inhibits inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMP). It is also an analog of the imidazole nucleotide intermediates in purine nucleotide…

Naphthol AS-D chloroacetate is a substrate for histochemical localization of esterases.

Trypsin inhibitor from soybeans is a monomeric protein containing 181 amino acid residues in a single polypeptide chain crosslinked by two disulfide bridges. Reversible serine protease inhibitor Inhibits factor Xa, trypsin, chymotrypsin, kallikrein and plasmin One unit will inhibit…

A highly active stable endopeptidase with a broad spectrum of action was isolated by E. Merk's Darmstadt Biochemical Research Department in 1970 from a culture filtrate of the fungus, Tritirachium album Limber, suitable for both protein and nucleic acid isolation, it exhibits proteolytic…
