Design and evaluation of nonpeptide fibrinogen γ-chain based GPIIb/IIIa antagonists
Two series of nonpeptide turn mimetics were designed by analysis of the solution NMR structure of the 385-411 sequence of the γ-chain of fibrinogen. These compounds, based on the KQAGD (Lys-Gln-Ala-Gly-Asp, 406-410) sequence, were synthesized and studied
