Antipain is a reversible inhibitor of Ser and Cys proteases with an activity spectrum comparable to leupeptin that was originally isolated from various strains of actinomycetes. H-1765 inhibited transformation of NIH3T3 cells after transfection with an activated H-ras oncogene. Antipain has been employed for evaluating the role of proteases in the process of malignant transformation of BALB/c 3T3 cells. Early studies investigated the potential for Antipain to alter DNA damage and chromosomal aberrations in irradiated cells or those treated with chemical mutagens such as N-methyl-N′-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG). Antipain was used in 2010 to obtain a crystal structure of the Leishmania major oligopeptidase B (OPB), a serine protease that serves as a virulence factor in trypanosomatids. The binding of Antipain to OPB has been used in molecular dynamic studies to identify other OPB inhibitors.
