TABLE 1.
Effects of various inhibitors on proteolytic activity of purified enzymea
Inhibitor (concn) | Relative activity (%) |
---|---|
None (control) | 100 |
E-64 (10 μM) | 94 |
Leupeptin (100 μM) | 107 |
Iodoacetic acid (1 mM) | 80 |
TLCK (100 μM) | 27 |
TPCK (100 μM) | 17 |
PMSF (1 mM) | 0.5 |
DFP (100 μM) | 8 |
EDTA (10 mM) | 90 |
Pepstatin A (1 μM) | 94 |
The inhibitors were tested at their maximum effective concentrations. Activity against azoalbumin in the absence of inhibitors was taken as 100% (control).
