THROMBIN INHIBITOR WITH A RIGID TRIPEPTIDYL ALDEHYDES
Overview
The crystal structures of three highly potent and selective low-molecular, weight rigid peptidyl aldehyde inhibitors complexed with thrombin have, been determined and refined to R values 0.152-0. 170 at 1.8-2.1 A, resolution. Since the selectivity of two of the inhibitors was >1600 with, respect to trypsin, the structures of trypsin-inhibited complexes of these, inhibitors were also determined (R = 0.142-0.157 at 1.9-2.1 A resolution)., The selectivity appears to reside in the inability of a benzenesulfonamide, group to bind at the equivalent of the D-enantiomorphic S3 site of, thrombin, which may be related to the lack of a 60-insertion loop in, trypsin. All the inhibitors have a novel lactam moiety at the P3 position, while the two with greatest trypsin selectivity have a ... [(full description)]
