用途：E-64是一種親和純化半胱氨酸蛋白酶的有效配體。

是一種有效的不可逆的半胱氨酸蛋白酶 (cysteine proteases) 抑制劑，抑制 papain 的 IC50 為 9 nM。

E-64 is an epoxide which can irreversibly inhibit a wide range of cysteine peptidases.
The compound was first isolated and identified from Aspergillus japonicus in 1978. It has since been shown to inhibit many cysteine peptidases such as papain, cathepsin B, cathepsin L, calpain and staphopain.
The low toxic effects of the inhibitor, in addition to its effective mechanism of action, makes E-64 a potential template for drugs to treat diseases where high levels of a cysteine proteases are the primary cause.
