, p. 41 - 47 (2007/10/02)
The preparation of dipeptide to pentapeptide chloromethyl ketones of alanine with variation of the amino acid in the P1 and P2 position of the peptides is described.The synthesis is performed by fragment condensation of N-acylated amino acids or peptides with the unprotected chloromethyl ketone derivatives of amino acids and peptides, respectively.Some examples of enzyme inactivation by peptide chloromethyl ketones are discussed.
