| Description | Soybean Trypsin-Chymotrypsin Inhibitor (STCI) is a natural protein inhibitor extracted from soybeans that blocks the activity of both trypsin and chymotrypsin. It forms tight, reversible complexes with the enzymes, preventing proteolysis. For research use only. Not intended for human or therapeutic use. |
| Synonyms | Bowman-Birk Inhibitor |
| Appearance | White to off-white powder |
| Application | Widely used in biochemical research on protease-inhibitor interactions, enzyme kinetics, and digestive enzyme regulation. Also serves as a model for studying antinutritional factors in legumes and protein-protein binding mechanisms. |
| Biochemical/Physiological Action | STCI inhibits serine proteases by binding their active sites, regulating proteolytic balance in plants and animals. Its dual specificity makes it valuable for understanding enzyme regulation and substrate selectivity. |
| MDL Number | MFCD00132532 |
| Storage Conditions | It is recommended to store this product at 2-8°C. |
