Description

It is used as a broad spectrum cysteine proteinase and calpain activation inhibitor. Additionally, Prevotella intermediate studies report that E-64 blocks the breakdown of methaemoglobin and the oxidation of oxyhaemoglobin by InpA. E-64 has also been used to study excystation in Giardia lamblia. E-64 is an inhibitor of Calpain, cathepsin K and cathepsin S. E-64 is an effective ligand for affinity purification of cysteine proteases. When coupled to a thiolated affinity matrix, binding is no longer irreversible, but specificity is retained This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
