Title: General solid-phase method to prepare novel cyclic ketone inhibitors of the cysteine protease cruzain.
Authors: Huang L, Ellman JA.
Abstract: A series of constrained ketone-based inhibitors has been developed that show low nanomolar Ki values. These ketone inhibitors showed promising activity towards cruzain, the cysteine protease implicated in Chagas' disease. This series of constrained inhibitors, which can be accessed quickly and efficiently using a solid-phase combinatorial strategy, should be applicable to other members of the cysteine protease class.
