摘要

Reversible tetrapeptide-based compounds have been shown to effectively inhibit the hepatitis C virus NS3· 4A protease. Inhibition of viral replicon RNA production in Huh-7 cells has also been demonstrated. We show herein that the inclusion of hydrogen bond donors on the P4 capping group of tetrapeptide-based inhibitors result in increased binding potency to the NS3· 4A protease. The capping groups also impart significant effects on the ...
