Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

Imprinting of lyophilized alpha-chymotrypsin with indole or sorbitol increased the reactivity of the active-site histidine towards iodomethane.
Biochemical and biophysical research communications  •  1997  |  View Paper
The binding of indole to the specificity site of alpha-chymotrypsin causes both histidine residues to become less reactive.
The Biochemical journal  •  1975  |  View Paper
Additionally, 5 mM indole was observed to behave as a strict competitive inhibitor of the alpha-chymotrypsin-catalyzed hydrolysis of BzTyrSBzl but was observed to increase the maximal rate of hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl acetate by alpha-chymotrypsin by 30%, as previously described.
