There are disclosed β-sheet mimetics and methods relating to the same for imparting or stabilizing the β-sheet structure of a peptide, protein or molecule. In one aspect, β-sheet mimetics are disclosed having utility as protease inhibitors in general and, more specifically, as serine protease inhibitors such as thrombin, elastase and Factor X inhibitors. In one embodiment, the β-sheet mimetic is a thrombin inhibitor.
本发明揭示了β-折叠结构类似物及其相关方法,用于赋予或稳定肽、蛋白质或分子的β-折叠结构。在一个方面,本发明揭示了具有普遍作为蛋白酶抑制剂的效用的β-折叠结构类似物,更具体地说,是丝氨酸蛋白酶抑制剂,如凝血酶、弹性蛋白酶和X因子抑制剂。在一个实施例中,β-折叠结构类似物是凝血酶抑制剂。
