Abstract
Removal of the beta-ketoamide functionality from L370,518 (K-i = 0.09 nM) provided a 5 nM K-i inhibitor of thrombin: L-371,912. Comparison o f the enzyme-inhibitor crystal structures suggests a possible explanat ion for the relatively small change in affinity for thrombin. L-371,91 2 is selective for thrombin over related serine proteases and is effic acious in an animal model of arterial thrombosis. Copyright (C) 1996 E lsevier Science Ltd
