Abstract:
:Replacement of the C-terminal carboxylic acid functionality of peptide inhibitors of hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS3 protease (complexed with NS4A peptide cofactor) by activated carbonyl groups does not produce any substantial increase in potency. These latter inhibitors also inhibit a variety of other serine and cysteine proteases whereas the carboxylic acids are specific. Norvaline was identified as a chemically stable replacement for the P1 residue of Ac-DDIVPC-OH which was also compatible with activated carbonyl functionalities.
