Drag the structure with the mouse to rotate

HCV NS3 protease with NS4a peptide and a covalently bound macrocyclic ketoamide compound.

Overview

The 17-membered phenylalanine-based macrocycle 6 was prepared starting, from 3-iodo-phenylalanine. Macrocyclization of alkene phenyl iodide 5 was, effected through a palladium-catalyzed Heck reaction. The macrocyclic, alpha-ketoamides were active inhibitors of the HCV NS3 protease, with the, C-terminal acids and amides being more potent than tert-butyl esters.

About this Structure

2A4Q is a Protein complex structure of sequences from Hepatitis c virus with , and as ligands. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
