Design, synthesis and evaluation of very potent and selective β-Secretase 2 (memapsin 1, BACE 2) inhibitors are described. The inhibitors were designed specifically to interact with the S2'-site of β-secretase 2 to provide >170,000-fold selectivity over β-secretase (BACE 1) and >15,000-fold selectivity over cathepsin D. BACE 2 is implicated in Type 2 diabetes. The studies serve as an important guide to selective BACE 2 inhibitors.
本文描述了强效且选择性的β-分泌酶2(膜天冬氨酸蛋白酶1,BACE 2)抑制剂的设计、合成及评估。这些抑制剂经专门设计,可与β-分泌酶2的S2'-位点相互作用,对β-分泌酶(BACE 1)的选择性大于170,000倍,对组织蛋白酶D的选择性大于15,000倍。BACE 2与2型糖尿病有关。这些研究为选择性BACE 2抑制剂提供了重要指导。
