Leu-Leu-OMe (16689-14-8) is a lysosomal damaging agent (lysosomotropic). It is condensed into a membranolytic polymer via the transpeptidase action of cathepsin C within lysosomes.1,2 May be used to induce a lysosomal damage model in cells.3,4  LLOMe-induced lysosomal damage elicits ubiquitin puncta formation on lysosomes.1 Induces apoptosis in human mast cells via lysosome destabilization leaving fibroblasts and HEK-293 cells largely resistant.5 Induces lysophagy.4
