BINDING STRUCTURE OF ELASTASE INHIBITOR SCYPTOLIN A

Overview

Natural bioactive compounds are of general interest to pharmaceutical, research because they may be used as leads in drug development campaigns., Among them, scyptolin A and B from Scytonema hofmanni PCC 7110 are known, to inhibit porcine pancreatic elastase, which in turn resembles the, attractive drug target neutrophil elastase. The crystal structure of, scyptolin A as bound to pancreatic elastase was solved at 2.8 A, resolution. The inhibitor occupies the most prominent subsites S1 through, S4 of the elastase and prevents a hydrolytic attack by covering the active, center with its rigid ring structure. The observed binding structure may, help to design potent elastase inhibitors.
