摘要:
A series of N-linked tetrakis(tetrapeptido)calix[4]arene diversomers, 3A-P, has been synthesized by Coupling of a cone calix[4]arene tetracarboxylic acid chloride with tetrapeptides 1A-P obtained in a parallel fashion. The inhibition activity of 3A-P towards tissue and microbial transglutaminase was evaluated by in vitro assays with a labeled substrate. Kinetic analysis using one of the most active derivatives (3A) showed a noncompetitive inhibition with respect to the amino acceptor Substrate and an uncompetitive inhibition with respect to amino donor substrate. Experimental results are in accordance with ail inhibition due to a protein specific surface recognition on a region noncomprising the enzyme active site. (C) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
