Abstract :
The design, synthesis, and enzyme inhibitory profile of D-Phe-Pro-p-Amidinobenzylamine are presented. This compound has inhibitory activity equivalent to D-Phe-Pro-Arg-H, two orders of magnitude more potent than D-Phe-Pro-Agmatine. The results indicate that binding energy provided by the covalent bond of a transition-state analog can be replaced with noncovalent interactions.
