|  |  | Phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride Usage And Synthesis | 
 | Chemical Properties | White to cream solid |  | Uses | Phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride is used as a Protease inhibitor such as Chymotrypsin, Trypsin and Thrombin as well as Acetylcholineesterase. |  | Uses | Standard protease inhibitor in biological research; in protein purification to prevent proteolytic degradation. |  | Uses | PMSF is an irreversible serine/cysteine protease inhibitor |  | Definition | ChEBI: Phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride is an acyl fluoride with phenylmethanesulfonyl as the acyl group. It has a role as a serine proteinase inhibitor. It derives from a phenylmethanesulfonic acid. |  | Biological Activity | pmsf (phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride) is an irreversible inhibitor of serine proteinases, which is associated with the development of the delayed organophosphorus neuropathy. it has a role in a lot of cellular repair and regeneration processes in many kinds of tissues. pmsf is a long acting neuropathy target esterase (nte) inhibitor. nte is a protection was related to inhibition of the putative target of organophosphate-induced delayed polyneuropathy (opidp). pmsf can increase nte inhibition to more than 90%. pmsf also acts as an active site directed reagent for γ-glutamyl transpeptidase.thomas baker, herbert e. lowndes, martin k. johnson, irene c. sandborg. the effects of phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride on delayed organophosphorus neuropathy. archives of toxicology. 1980; 46(3-4): 305 – 311.marcello lotti, stefano caroldi, eugenio capodicasa, angelo moretto. promotion of organophosphate-induced delayed polyneuropathy by phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride. toxicology and applied pharmacology. 1991; 108(2): 234 – 241.masayasu inoue, seikoh horiuchi, yoshimasa morino. inactivation of γ-glutamyl transpeptidase by phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride, a specific inactivator of serine enzymes. biochemical and biophysical research communications. 1978; 82(4): 1183 – 1188. |  | Biochem/physiol Actions | Phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride has the ability to enhance the stability of plasma lipidome in lipidomic and metabolomic analysis. This serine protease inhibitor reduces the naloxone-precipitated withdrawal jumping behavior in morphine-dependent mice. |  | storage | Desiccate at RT |  | Purification Methods | Purify PMSF by recrystallisation from *C6H6, pet ether or CHCl3/pet ether. [Davies & Dick J Chem Soc 483 1932, cf Tullock & Coffman J Org Chem 23 2016 1960.] It is a general protease inhibitor (specific for trypsin and chymotrypsin) and is a good substitute for diisopropylphosphoro floridate [Fahrney & Gould J Am Chem Soc 85 997 1963].
