We have demonstrated that thiol-bearing analogues of alpha-chymotrysin (alpha-CT) substrates such as (S)-(1-benzyl-2-thiolethyl)-carbamic acid, benzyl ester (3) inhibits (alpha-CT, a prototypical serine protease, in the presence of Zn(II) ion. They constitute a novel class of small molecule inhibitors for alpha-CT believed to inhibit the enzyme by forming a ternary complex consisting of alpha-CT, Zn(II) ion, and the inhibitor.
