The N-terminal aminoacid of phenethylamide tripeptide inhibitors of the hepatitis C virus NS3 protease can be replaced with an a-hydroxy acid to obtain more 'drug like' inhibitors with low micromolar activity. The preferred S-configuration of the capping residue can be explained by molecular modeling studies. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
