1BTP - PubMed Abstract:
Trypsin and N-[3-[4-[4-(amidinophenoxy)carbonyl]phenyl]-2-methyl-2-propenoyl]- N-allylglycine methanesulfonate (1), a newly designed and orally active synthetic trypsin inhibitor, were cocrystallized. The space group of the crystal is P2(1)2(1)2(1) with cell constants a = 63.74 A, b = 63.08 A, and c = 69.38 A, which is nearly identical to that of the orthorhombic crystal of guanidinobenzoyltrypsin. The structure was refined to a crystallographic residual R = 0.176. The refined model of the 1-trypsin complex provides the structural basis for the reaction mechanism of 1. On the basis of the present X-ray results, it is proposed that the potent inhibitory activity of 1 is mainly due to the formation of an acylated trypsin through an "inverse substrate mechanism" and its low rate of deacylation.
