A potent inhibitor of chymotrypsin and chymase (Ki = 9.36 and 13.1 nM, respectively), that less effectively blocks the activity of cathepsins, papain, and leukocyte elastase.

Chymostatin is an inhibitor of proteases such as chymase that is used in research models.

CAS No.: 9076-44-2

Chymostatin is a reversible protease inhibitor, inhibiting chymotrypsin, chymotrypsin-like serine proteases, chymases and lysosomal cysteine proteinases such as cathepsins B, H and L. It weakly inhibits human leucocyte elastase. It is effective at a final concentration of 100-200 ug/mL (10 to 100…
