Abstract: | Three analogues of -echistatin, des(4549)--echistatin,des(4649)-y-echistatin and des(4749)--echistatin,were synthesized by solid-phase methodology and their biologicalactivities were measured and compared. The results reveal thatwithout the C-terminal (4549) of -echistatin, the foldingof the protein to the final active structure is not interferedwith and Lys-45 influences the inhibition of platelet aggregation. |
