Protein Inhibition
Protein Inhibition involves interference with, or restraint of, the activities of the group of complex organic macromolecules composed of at least one chain (linear polymer) of alpha-L-amino acids linked by peptide bonds and ranging in size from a few thousand to over 1 million Daltons. Proteins are genetically encoded components of living cells with specific structures and functions dictated by amino acid sequence and include diverse functional classes such as enzymes, hormones, receptors, and antibodies.
