Antipain is an oligopeptide that is isolated from actinomycetes and used in biochemical research as a protease inhibitor of trypsin and papain.[1] It was discovered in 1972 and was the first natural peptide found that contained an ureylene group.[2] Antipain can aid in prevention of coagulation in blood. It is an inhibitor of serine and cysteine proteases.[3]
It has been crystallized in complexes with carboxypeptidase, which is obtained from wheat,[4] and Leishmania major oligopeptidase B.[5] In both cases, the backbone carbonyl of the terminal arginine of antipain forms a covalent bond to the active site serine in the protease.
A study was performed for information on the effect of antipain on the quality of post-thawed ram semen.[6] The results from this experiment concluded that antipain aided in the quality of ram semen by maintaining the sperm mobility.[6] Antipain includes the function to inhibit a degrading enzyme, called plasmin, permitting this substance to be able to improve the resistance of membrane disruption by freezing temperatures.[6]
Antipain Y, a similar chemical compound that is an analog of antipain, which was isolated from a species of Streptomyces, inhibits the release of neurotransmitters in rat dorsal root ganglion neurons.[7]
