Popis: Starting from a tripeptide screening hit, a series of dipeptide inhibitors of the proteasome with Thr as the P3 residue has been optimized with the aid of crystal structures in complex with the β-5/6 active site of y20S. Derivative 25, (β5 IC(50)=7.4 nM) inhibits only the chymotryptic activity of the proteasome, shows cellular activity against targets in the UPS, and inhibits proliferation.
