Aprotinin is a single chain polypeptide (58 amino-acids) crosslinked by three disulfide bridges, showing competitive and reversible inhibiton of proteolytic and esterolytic activity. Aprotinin forms stable complexes with, and blocks the active sites of serine protease enzymes. It is found in bovine…

Aprotinin is a protein consisting of 58 amino acids, arranged in a single polypeptide chain that is crosslinked by three disulfide bridges. Aprotinin is found in bovine lymph nodes, lung, parotid gland, spleen, liver, pancreas, seminal vesicles, thyroid gland, kidney, mucous membranes of the…

A reversible inhibitor of serine proteases such as trypsin (Ki = 0.06 pM), chymotrypsin (Ki = 9.5 nM), and kallikrein (Ki = 0.8 nM); widely used as a protein purification tool to prevent proteases present in tissue samples from degrading the protein of interest.
