| Application: | Ideal for use as a buffer component during sonication, lysis buffer, and RIPA buffer Provides protection against endogenous enzyme activity in cell and tissue extracts |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Inhibits serine, cysteine, and acid proteases, and aminopeptidases. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | This mixture contains individual components, including AEBSF at 104 mM, Aprotinin at 80 μM, Bestatin at 4 mM, E-64 at 1.4 mM, Leupeptin at 2 mM and Pepstatin A at 1.5 mM. Each component has specific inhibitory properties. AEBSF and Aprotinin act to inhibit serine proteases, including trypsin, chymotrypsin, and plasmin amongst others. Bestatin inhibits aminpeptidases. E-64 acts against cystein proteases. Leupeptin acts against both serine and cystein proteases. Pepstatin A inhibits acid proteases. |
| Disclaimer: | This cocktail should be stored at -20 °C. |
| Features and Benefits: | Broad-spectrum inhibition: inhibits multiple classes of proteases and aminopeptidases Stable storage: supplied as a solution in DMSO, allowing for long-term storage at -20°C Consistent performance: ready-to-use solution |
| General description: | Protease Inhibitor Cocktail for mammalian cell and tissue extracts, in DMSO solution. It contains six individual components for inhibiting serine, cysteine, and acid proteases, and aminopeptidases. |
