Cyclic amides of N alpha-arylsulfonylaminoacylated 4-amidinophenylalanine--tight binding inhibitors of thrombin.

Variation of the potent thrombin inhibitors derived from N alpha-arylsulfonyl-4-amidinophenylalanine was carried out by interposition of an omega-aminoalkylcarboxylic acid between the N alpha-arylsulfonyl residue and the 4-amidinophenylalanine part. The use of glycine as spacer renders the compounds tight binding inhibitors of thrombin. The Ki of the most potent inhibitor reaches the nmol/l range. The inhibitory effect is specifically directed against thrombin, the Ki values for inhibition of trypsin, plasmin and factor Xa are some orders of magnitude higher than those for thrombin inhibition.

[Synthetic serine proteinase inhibitors. 30. Synthesis of alpha-benzoylamino-4-amidinocinnamic acid and alpha-(4-amidinobenzoylamino) cinnamic acid amides, and their inhibitory effect on trypsin-like enzymes].

To test their inhibitory activity against enzymes, the authors synthetized the compounds named in the title. The synthesis started from the corresponding azlactones 1 and 9. Subsequent aminolysis led to the alpha-benzoyl-aminocinnamic acid amides 2 and 10 which contain a cyano function. The acid amides were converted, in different ways, to the desired amidine salts 4, 7, 12 and 15. The amidines obtained showed but little inhibitory activity against the serine proteinases thrombin, trypsin and plasmin.

[Synthetic inhibitors of serine proteinases. Part 24: Inhibition of trypsin, plasmin and thrombin by cyclic amides of N alpha-arylsulfonylamidinophenyl-glycines (author's transl)].

Cyclic amides of n alpha-arylsulfonyl (3-amidinophenyl)glycine are potent inhibitors of the serine proteinase trypsin, plasmin and thrombin. The weak inhibitory activity of the corresponding 4-amidinophenylglycine derivatives cannot be explained in terms of the structure-activity relationships established for benzamidine derivatives. It might be caused by steric hindrance of enzyme-inhibitor interactions.

Low-intensity two-step absorption of chlorophyll A in vivo.

The intensity-dependent transmission of primary leaves of Triticum aestivum seedlings at lambda = 694 nm was measured with single pulses of a Q-switch ruby laser. At photon flux densities above 2 x 10(17) cm-2s-1 a decrease of transmission was observed. The result is interpreted as a two-step absorption of cooperative units of 10(5)-10(6) chlorophyll molecules.
