Lactacystin is an organic compound naturally synthesized by bacteria of the genus Streptomyces first described in 1991.[1] The first total synthesis of lactacystin was developed by Elias Corey in 1992.[2] The molecule is most commonly used as in biochemistry and cell biology laboratories as a selective inhibitor of the proteasome.[3][4] The molecule is a lactam, or cyclic amide. A number of syntheses of this molecule have been published and there are no less than 1,300 references to this natural product in the literature.[5]
