Mr. Wiley et al., SERINE-PROTEASE SELECTIVITY OF THE THROMBIN INHIBITOR D-PHE-PRO-AGMATINE AND ITS HOMOLOGS, Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry letters, 5(23), 1995, pp. 2835-2840
Analogs of D-Phe Pro-Agmatine were assayed for inhibititory activity v
ersus thrombin, trypsin, plasmin, n-tPA and urokinase. The X-ray struc
ture of the thrombin/D-Phe-Pro-Agmatineo-crystal revealed that the agm
atine and analogous arginals have very similar bound conformations.
