Inhibition of Human and Yeast 20S Proteasome by Analogues of Trypsin Inhibitor SFTI-1
Starting from the primary structure of sunflower trypsin inhibitor SFTI-1, we designed novel non-covalent inhibitors of human and yeast 20S proteasomes. Peptides with Arg residue in P(1) position and two basic amino acid residues (Lys or/and Arg) in P(2)′ and P(3)′ positions strongly inhibited chymo...

Sumario: | Starting from the primary structure of sunflower trypsin inhibitor SFTI-1, we designed novel non-covalent inhibitors of human and yeast 20S proteasomes. Peptides with Arg residue in P(1) position and two basic amino acid residues (Lys or/and Arg) in P(2)′ and P(3)′ positions strongly inhibited chymotrypsin-like and caspase-like activities, while trypsin-like activity was poorly modified. We found that some SFTI-1 analogues up-regulated exclusively the chymotrypsin-like activity of latent yeast 20S proteasome. |
