Effects of known phenoloxidase inhibitors on hemocyanin-derived phenoloxidase from Limulus polyphemus

open access: yes, 2012
Inhibitors of phenoloxidase are used routinely to characterise the structural and functional properties of phenoloxidases. Hemocyanin-derived phenoloxidase activity is also sensitive to standard phenoloxidase inhibitors.
