Other Product Data

In vitro lactacystin does not react with the proteasome. It rather undergoes a spontaneous conversion (lactonization) to the active metabolite clasto-lactacystin β-lactone.

Description
  • Potent and selective irreversible and cell permeable proteasome inhibitor. Inhibits the chymotrypsin-like, trypsin-like and caspase-like peptidase activity of the proteasome.
  • The active metabolite of lactacystin (Prod. No. AG-CN2-0104) with higher potency since it does not require hydrolysis in order to become cell permeable.
  • Calpain and cathepsin inhibitor.
  • Apoptosis inducer.
  • Anticancer compound. Induces differentiation and inhibits cell cycle progression in several tumor cell lines.
  • Induces neuritogenesis.
  • Autophagy inducer.
