Ac-YVAD-FMK is a selective inhibitor of caspase 1-like proteases. It functions by covalently modifying the active site cysteine, thus blocking the enzymatic activity of these proteases. This compound is valuable in the study of inflammation and cell death pathways, particularly in research focused on the mechanisms of pyroptosis and other caspase-associated processes.
