Cilastatin is the thioether formed by the oxidative coupling of the thiol group of L-cysteine with the 7-position of (2Z)-2-({[(1S)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropyl]carbonyl}amino)hept-2-enoic acid. It inhibits dehydropeptidase I (EC 3.4.13.19), an enzyme in the brush border of renal tubes that degrades imipenem. Administered as the sodium salt with imipenem, it prolongs its antibacterial effect by preventing renal metabolism to inactive and nephrotoxic products. Cilastatin also inhibits leukotriene D4 dipeptidase, preventing the conversion of leukotriene D4 to leukotriene E4. It functions as a protease inhibitor, xenobiotic, environmental contaminant, and non-proteinogenic L-alpha-amino acid, being a L-cysteine derivative, organic sulfide, and carboxamide. It is the conjugate acid of cilastatin(1-).
