description

Irreversible, highly selective inhibitor of cysteine proteases. Shows no inhibition against serine proteases with except for trypsin. Interacts with the Sn-subsites of proteases. For in vivo studies, the use of E-64 as a cysteine protease inhibitor is highly recommended because of its specificity, cell and tissue permeability, as well as its low toxicity. Inhibits activation-induced programmed cell death and restores defective immune responses in HIV+ donors.
