Description

General description

A cell-permeable tetrapeptidylsulfonylfluoride-based irreversible proteasome inhibitor that selectively inhibits the hydrolysis of Suc-LLVY-AMC (Cat. No. 539142) by the β5 chymotrypsin-like activity (IC₅₀ = 7 nM using yeast 20S proteasome; [E]₀ = 0.1 nM, [S]₀ = 250 µM; 15 min preincubation before substrate addition), while exhibiting much reduced potency against Z-LLE-AMC (Cat. No. 539141) hydrolysis by the β1 caspase-like activity or Z-LLR-AMC hydrolysis by the β2 trypsin-like activity (29% and 75% inhibition, respectively; 15 min preincubation with 200 µM inhibitor). One hour inhibitor treatment at 5 µM in HEK cultures is shown to completely abolish β5 labeling by the proteasome probe MV151, while only partial MV151 blockage is seen with β1 and β2 subunits at an inhibitor concentration of 50 µM.
