Nj. Ede et al., Solid phase synthesis of peptide aldehyde protease inhibitors. Probing theproteolytic sites of hepatitis C virus polyprotein, J PEPT SCI, 6(1), 2000, pp. 11-18
The solid phase synthesis of a set of peptide aldehydes derived from the NS
5A/NS5B junction of hepatitis C virus (HCV) viral polyprotein is demonstrat
ed using an oxazolidine linker and the Multipin(TM) method. Deletion of the
P6 and P5 residues results in a dramatic loss of inhibitory activity. Copy
