Abstrakt: Three new analogues of trypsin inhibitor CMTI-III were synthesized by the solid-phase method: [Lys5]CMTI-III, [Orn5]CMTI-III and [Dab5]CMTI-III. Only one analogue withl-lysine residue in position P1showed inhibitory activity of the same order of magnitude as did wild CMTI-III. Two remaining analogues were completely inactive. A conclusion was drawn that the distance between the basic group of the amino acid residue's side chain in position P1of the trypsin inhibitor CMTI-III and Asp189in the substrate pocket of trypsin plays an essential role for the trypsin–inhibitor interaction.
