additional information | peptidomimetic compounds based on a phenylacetyl-Arg-Val-Arg-4-(amidomethyl)benzamidine core structure belong to the strongest noncovalent enzyme inhibitors. Upon variation of the P5 position, dramatic changes of the Ki values are observed that cannot be explained by the known recognition motive. The Ki improves by approximately 2 orders of magnitude after addition of basic substituents, e.g., by modification of the Phac-moiety at P5 by a m- or p-guanidinomethyl group.
