Locking the two ends of tetrapeptidic HTLV-I protease inhibitors inside the enzyme
摘要:
Adult T-cell leukemia and tropical spastic paraparesis/ HTLV-I-associated myelopathy are only some of the more common end results of an infection with a human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-I). Expanding from our previous reports, we synthesized all different permutations of tetrapeptidic HTLV-I protease inhibitors using at least eight P3-cap and five P(1)'-cap moieties. The inhibitors exhibited over 97% inhibition against HIV-1 protease and a wide range of inhibitory activity against HTLV-I protease. (c) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
