L-leucinthiol (2-amino-4-methyl-1-pentanethiol) was designed as an inhibitor of leucine aminopeptidase by analogy with sulfhydryl inhibitors of other zinc-containing peptidases. It was synthesized from L-leucinol and shown to be a potent competitive inhibitor of the microsomal aminopeptidase from porcine kidney (Ki

L-Lysinethiol was found to be an extremely potent inhibitor of aminopeptidase B (AP-B) with a Ki = 9.1 X 10(-10) M. L-leucinethiol was also a potent inhibitor of AP-B (kj = 1.3 X 10(-7) M), while the D-isomer was much

Dissecting the different steps of the processing and presentation of tumor-associated antigens is a key aspect of immunotherapies enabling to tackle the immune response evasion attempts of cancer cells. The immunodominant glycoprotein gp100209-217 epitope, which is liberated from the melanoma

Sulfur-containing amino acid and peptide analogues of bestatin [((2S,3R)-3-amino-2-hydroxy-4-phenyl-butanoyl)-L-leucine] (1) have been synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors of aminopeptidase M (AP-M), leucine aminopeptidase (LAP), and aminopeptidase B (AP-B). The 2-thiolbestatin analogue (6) was found to be a potent inhibitor of

L-Leucinthiol, a synthetic derivative of mercaptoethylamine with a hydrophobic side chain, was recently reported to be a potent inhibitor of microsomal aminopeptidase. The structural features necessary for interaction of mercaptoamines with this enzyme have now been explored more systematically. Optimal
