|---|---|---|---|
| Chymotrypsin-like activity | PGPH activity | Trypsin-like activity | |
| TMC-95A | 1.1 ± 0.1 nm | 29 ± 4 nm | 0.81 ± 0.12 µm |
| TMC-95B | 1.7 ± 0.1 nm | 23 ± 3 nm | 1.1 ± 0.1 µm |
| 12 | 5.7 ± 0.8 nm | 150 ± 20 nm | 9.7 ± 3.5 µm |

| 19 | 7.0 ± 5.0 µm | 5.3 ± 0.6 µm | 49 ± 34 µm |
| 20 | >100 µm | >100 µm | >100 µm |
| 21 | 22 ± 10 µm | 65 ± 25 µm | >100 µm |
| Epoxomicin aldehyde | 7.0 ± 0.6 nm | 2.6 ± 0.1 µm | 0.35 ± 0.06 µm |
The concentrations required for inhibition of the three major proteasome catalytic activities were determined for TMC-95A and B, their synthetic analogues, and for epoxomicin aldehyde for comparison.
The value vo is the rate of enzyme activity in the absence of inhibitor, and vs is the steady rate of inhibited enzyme activity.
