Structure:

Purity:

98% by HPLC. Structure confirmed by <sup>1</sup>H-NMR.

Solubility:

Soluble and stable in DMSO or MeCN up to 20 mg/ml. Pellet dry compound prior to DMSO addition. Subject to hydrolysis in aqueous buffers.

Activity:

k_obs/[I] = 4,000 M^-1 s^-1 vs. 20S:PA28 complex.
Inhibits ubiquitin proteasome pathway in cell culture (IC50=10 μM).

Potent, highly specific, irreversible and cell-permeable inhibitor that covalently modifies the catalytic β subunits (chymotrypsin-, trypsin- and caspase-like activities) of the proteasome. Lactacystin is hydrolyzed in aqueous solutions to a clasto-lactacystin β-lactone intermediate which is the active inhibitory species that reacts with the proteasome.

Storage:

Store at -20°C. Avoid multiple freeze/thaw cycles.
