Calpain, the calcium-activated cysteinyl proteinase, can be irreversibly inactivated by peptidyl diazomethyl ketones in which the peptide portion contains a penultimate leucine residue. Some new derivatives of this type have been synthesized and examined for their rates of inactivation of chicken gizzard and human platelet calpain. Two derivatives containing a C-terminal biotin residue, Biot-Aca-Leu-TyrCHN2 and Biot-Aca-Leu-Leu-TyrCHN2, have also been prepared in the expectation that their application to the study of the function of calpain and related proteases will prove fruitful.
