Ecotin (E. coli serine protease inhibitor) inhibits pancreatic serine proteases. This protein inhibits chymotrypsin, trypsin, elastases, factor X, kallikrein as well as a variety of other proteases. The strength of inhibition does not appear to be correlated with a particular protease specificity. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa21-162 from E. coli Ecotin, fused to His-tag at N-terminal expressed in E. coli.
