Structure-based design of amidinophenylurea-derivatives for factor VIIa inhibition
摘要:
The amidinophenylurea scaffold was earlier shown to provide an excellent template for the synthesis of novel and potent inhibitors of the blood coagulation factor VIIa. In this contribution we describe the structure-based design of potent ligands guided by X-ray crystallography, molecular modeling and docking studies. The design and synthetic efforts were directed towards novel modifications to explore the protease binding region close to the S4 subsite. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
