Design of Novel, Potent, Noncovalent Inhibitors of Thrombin with Nonbasic P-1 Substructures: Rapid Structure−Activity Studies by Solid-Phase Synthesis
1998
Study of surface representations of the inhibitor-bound thrombin P-1 pocket revealed a lipophilic recess in this pocket which is not occupied by any known inhibitor. Solid-phase synthesis was used to generate benzylamides of D-diphenylAlaPro by aminolysis of Boc dipeptide Kaiser resin. The resulting amides inhibited thrombin in the range IC 50 = 3-13 000 nM, and the structure-activity relationships and molecular modeling suggest a unique fit of the benzyl side chain into P-1 with the meta substituent occupying the recess.
