HUMAN ALPHA-THROMBIN IN COMPLEX WITH BIVALENT, BENZAMIDINE-BASED SYNTHETIC INHIBITOR

Contents

Overview

Two bivalent thrombin inhibitors were synthesized, which consist of a, benzamidine-based active-site-blocking segment, a fibrinogen recognition, exosite inhibitor and a peptidic linker connecting these fragments. BZA-1, hirulog contains an Nalpha-(2-naphthylsulfonyl)-S-3-amidinophenylalanyl-is, onipecotic acid residue connected via the carboxyl group to the linker, segment. The active-site-directed moiety of BZA-2 hirulog, [Nalpha-(2-naphthylsulfonyl-glutamyl)-R-4-amidinophenylal anyl-piperid, ide] was coupled to the linker via the side chain of the glutamic acid., Both BZA-hirulogs contain almost identical linker-exo site inhibitor, parts, except for the substitution of a glycine as the first linker, residue in BZA-1 hirulog by a gamma-amino butyric acid in BZA-2 hirulog, thus increasing flexibility and linker length by two additional atoms., BZA-1 hirulog showed moderate potency (Ki = 0. 50 +/- 0.14 nM), while, BZA-2 hirulog was characterized as a slow, tight binding inhibitor of, thrombin (Ki = 0.29 +/- 0.08 pM). The stability in human plasma of both, analogs was strongly improved compared with hirulog-1. For BZA-2 hirulog a, significantly reduced plasma clearance was observed after intravenous, injection in rats compared with BZA-1 hirulog and hirulog-1. The X-ray, structure of the BZA-2 hirulog in complex with human alpha-thrombin was, solved and confirmed the expected bivalent binding mode.
