Answer & explanation:

Viruses are <u>not</u> considered to be living beings, as they do not belong to any of the five kingdoms that classify organisms, and are not made up of cells. Viruses are primarily proteinaceous particles that carry nucleic acid (DNA, RNA or both) in small quantities.

In addition, viruses have no metabolic activity, such as using energy or capturing nutrients, without infecting a living host cell, subverting their metabolism to produce more viruses.

N-Tosylamido-L-phenylethyl, also called tosyl phenylalanyl chloromethyl ketone (TPCK), irreversibly inhibits chymotrypsin, and i
Ahat [919]

Chymotrypsin is permanently inhibited by TPCK. Additionally inhibits certain cysteine proteases, including ficin, papain, caspase, and bromelain.  For the chemical labeling of active histidine in enzyme analysis, TPCK is chosen. Because the enzyme has a preference for aromatic amino acid residues at the active site, the phenylalanine moiety is attached to the enzyme (as in chymotrypsin, in which it binds to the Histidine-57 residue in the active site).

[1] Neither zymogens nor trypsin are inhibited by it.

In the crystal structure of the complex solved in 2010, TPCK is seen covalently bonded in the active site of Caspase 3.

[2] With the chlorine removed, the chloromethyl group interacts with the cysteine in the active site to form a covalent connection.
