Hydrophobicity versus activity in crosslinked interfacial peptide inhibitors of HIV-1 protease
摘要:
Crosslinked peptides with amino functionality incorporated within the tethering moiety 2a-c, 3a-c were synthesized and tested as interfacial inhibitors of HIV-1 protease. As part of a strategy to develop the novel method of dissociative inhibition as a viable pharmacological approach, compounds were made to test hydrophobicity and size requirements of the tethering moiety. In the case of crosslinked interfacial peptide inhibitors of HIV-1 protease, hydrophilic 2a-c and bulky hydrophobic 3a-c tethers decreased effectiveness by approximately 10- and 2-fold, respectively.
