Bioactivity | AAF-CMK TFA (Ala-ala-phe-chloromethylketone tfa; N-Ala-Ala-Phe-CMK) is a subtilisin-type serine peptidase that removes tripeptides from the free NH2 termini of oligopeptides. AAF-CMK TFA is an irreversible inhibitor of TPPII and is typically used at concentrations of 10-100 μM. It does not significantly interfere with the chymotrypsin-like activity of the proteasome. AAF-CMK also inhibits bleomycin hydrolase and puromycin-sensitive aminopeptidase when used at a concentration of 50 μM. |
