H-D-Val-Leu-Lys-chloromethylketone . HCl

Description:

H-D-Val-Leu-Lys-chloromethylketone.HCl, with the CAS number 75590-15-7, is a synthetic peptide derivative that functions primarily as a protease inhibitor. This compound is characterized by its structure, which includes the amino acids valine (Val), leucine (Leu), and lysine (Lys), along with a chloromethylketone moiety that contributes to its reactivity. The presence of the hydrochloride (HCl) indicates that it is a salt form, enhancing its solubility in aqueous solutions, which is beneficial for biological applications. The chloromethylketone group is particularly significant as it can form covalent bonds with active site residues of proteases, thereby inhibiting their activity. This property makes it valuable in biochemical research, particularly in studies involving enzyme kinetics and protein interactions. Additionally, the compound's stability and specificity towards certain proteases can be influenced by the surrounding amino acid sequence, making it a useful tool in the development of therapeutic agents targeting proteolytic pathways.
