Abstract: We describe the synthesis and biological activities of a series of methyl 3,4-epoxypiperidine-3-carboxylate tripeptide derivatives that inhibit the chymotryptic and tryptic active sites of the 20S proteasome. Of the series, compound 2 which contains 3-hydroxy-2-methylbenzoyl group at its N-terminal position, displayed the greatest inhibitory potency (IC(50) <1 microM). All derivatives showed favourable pharmacokinetic properties.
