Azapeptides as inhibitors and active site titrants for cysteine proteinases
Xing, Ruye,Hanzlik, Robert P.
, p. 1344 - 1351 (1998)
Ester and amide derivatives of α-azaglycine (carbazic acid, H2NHCOOH), α-azaalanine, and α-azaphenylalanine (i.e., AC-L-Phe-NHN(R)CO-X, where X = H, CH3, or CH2Ph, respectively) were synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors
Cysteine protease inhibition by azapeptide esters
Magrath,Abeles
, p. 4279 - 4283 (2007/10/02)
Papain, a prototype cysteine protease, was inhibited in a time-dependent manner by azapeptide esters designed to deliver an azaglycine group to the active-site thiol. For example, the rate of inhibition was 18 M-1 s-1 for Ac-L-PheAgl
