A novel series of TNF-alpha convertase (TACE) inhibitors which are non-hydroxamate have been discovered. These compounds are bis-amides of L-tartaric acid (tartrate) and coordinate to the active site zinc in a tridentate manner. They are selective for TACE over other MMP's. We report the first X-ray crystal structure for a tartrate-based TACE inhibitor.
现已发现一系列新型 TNF-α 转化酶（TACE）抑制剂，它们均不属于羟胺类。这些化合物是 L-酒石酸（酒石酸盐）的双酰胺，以三齿配位方式与活性部位锌配位。它们对 TACE 的选择性高于其他 MMP。我们报告了首个基于酒石酸盐的 TACE 抑制剂的 X 射线晶体结构。
