Recombinant eglin c (originally isolated from the medical leech) and antileukoprotease (HUSI-I from human seminal plasma) were examined for their ability to inhibit the mastcell protease chymase. Both inhibitors react rapidly with the enzyme: when about equimolar concentrations (in the range of 10(-8) M) of chymase and HUSI-I or eglin c were incubated the complex formation was apparently at equilibrium after 1 or 5 min respectively. When a constant amount of chymase (approximately 3 X 10(-8) M) was incubated with increasing concentrations of inhibitor a concentration of HUSI-I of 7 X 10(-7) M was necessary to cause 50% inhibition of the initial enzyme activity, whereas 8 X 10(-8) M eglin c was sufficient. The dissociation constant of the chymase-eglin c complex was calculated to be 4.4 X 10(-8) M. These results are discussed with respect to the possible in vivo function of antileukoprotease as an inhibitor of mast cell chymase.
