Abstract
A new class of potent matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) inhibitors designed by structure- based optimization of the well-known arylsulfonamide scaffold is presented. Molecules show an ethylene linker connecting the sulfonamide group with the P1′ aromatic portion and a d- proline residue bearing the zinc-binding group. The affinity improvement provided by these modifications led us to discover a nanomolar MMP inhibitor bearing a carboxylate moiety ...
