(Z-LL)2 Ketone is a synthetic peptide aldehyde used as a proteasome inhibitor in biochemical research. Its primary application is to inhibit the chymotrypsin-like activity of the proteasome, which is a protein complex responsible for degrading ubiquitinated proteins. The inhibition of proteasomal activity by (Z-LL)2 Ketone allows researchers to study the regulation of protein turnover, the cellular response to misfolded or damaged proteins, and the role of the ubiquitin-proteasome system in controlling various cellular processes. Moreover, this compound is instrumental in elucidating the mechanisms of action of the proteasome in cell cycle regulation, gene expression, and signal transduction. (Z-LL)2 Ketone is also used to investigate the consequences of proteasome inhibition in various disease models, particularly those related to protein aggregation and proteostasis.
