Towards the development of chemotherapy for the infection by human T-cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV-I), we have established evaluation systems for HTLV-I protease (PR) inhibitors using both recombinant and chemically synthesized HTLV-I PRs. Newly synthesized substrate-based inhibitors containing hydroxymethylcarbonyl (HMC) isostere showed potent anti-HTLV-I PR activity.
为了开发针对人类I型T细胞白血病病毒(HTLV-I)感染的化疗方法,我们利用重组和化学合成的HTLV-I蛋白酶(PR)建立了HTLV-I PR抑制剂的评估系统。新合成的含羟甲基羰基(HMC)等排体的基于底物的抑制剂显示出强大的抗HTLV-I PR活性。
