Abstract
Peptide analogues of Tendamistat which include the most essential residues linked by novel ω-amino acids (X,Y,Z: H2N-(CH2) n-CO2H, where n=2-10) were designed, synthesized (Ac-Tyr15-X-Trp18-Arg19-Tyr20-Y- Thr55-Z-Asp58-Gly59-Tyr60-Ile 61-Gly62-NH2), and analyzed for α-amylase inhibitory activity. Native dipeptide spacers sometimes were left intact at X and Z. Analogues demonstrated competitive inhibition with Ki values ranging from 23 to 767 μM. 8-Aminooctanoic acid was the optimal linker at Y, while longer linkers were favored at the other positions.
