Description
An irreversible inhibitor of serine proteases (such as thrombin, trypsin and chymotrypsin) and mammalian acetylcholinesterase. It causes sulfonylation of the active-site serine residues. Inhibits cysteine proteases like papain (reversible by DTT treatment). Also inhibits internucleosomal DNA fragmentation in immature thymocytes.
