Biochem/physiol Actions

Inhibitor of serine and cysteine proteases. Inhibits plasmin, trypsin, papain, calpain, and cathepsin B. Does not inhibit pepsin, cathepsins A and D, thrombin, or α-chymotrypsin. Effective concentration 10-100 μM.
Inhibitor of serine and cysteine proteases. Inhibits plasmin, trypsin, papain, calpain, and cathepsin B. Does not inhibit pepsin, cathepsins A and D, thrombin, or α-chymotrypsin. Effective concentration 10-100 μM. There have been numerous studies using leupeptin to protect against hearing loss caused by acoustic overstimulation or the ototoxic antibiotic gentamicin. (Loss of cochlear hair cells is believed to be mediated by calpain.)

Analysis Note

Leupeptin gives multiple peaks on HPLC because of the formation of tautomeric isomers in solution. Majority of contaminating peptide is racemized leupeptin.

The proteasome is an ATP-dependent molecular machine that degrades proteins through the concerted activity of dozens of subunits. It is the yin to the ribosome's yang, and together these entities mold the protein landscape of the cell. Native gels are

RNA metabolism involves regulatory processes, such as transcription, splicing, nuclear export, transport and localization, association with sites of RNA modification, silencing and decay, and necessitates a wide variety of diverse RNA-interacting proteins. These interactions can be direct via RNA-binding proteins

Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) and its metabolite dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene (DDE) are ubiquitous in the environment and detected in tissues of living organisms. Although DDT owes its insecticidal activity to impeding closure of voltage-gated sodium channels, it mediates toxicity in mammals by acting as
