Originally identified as an anti-tumor drug, aclacinomycin A is the first described non-peptidic inhibitor showing discrete specificity for the chymotrypsin-like activity of the 20S proteasome. Aclacinomycin A has no effect on cathepsin B, it stimulates trypsin activity but inhibits the activity of both chymotrypsin and calpain.
