Abstract

Inhibition of the proteasome, the multicatalytic protease complex responsible for the turnover of many cellular proteins, represents an attractive target in the development of new drug therapies, proteasome inhibitors being potentially useful tools for the treatment of pathologies such as cancer, as well as inflammatory, immune and neurodegenerative diseases. Based on our previous development of a new class of inhibitors bearing a C‐terminal VE cluster able to interact with catalytic threonine, we report herein the synthesis and activity of new VE‐based peptide analogs bearing an additional allyl pharmacophore unit at the C‐ or N‐terminal position of the pseudotripeptide sequence. In the new series, the structural modification carried out to the prototype determine a decrease of proteasome inhibition. Copyright Β© 2010 European Peptide Society and John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

## Abstract Peptides represent a rich natural source of potential medicines with one notable pharmaceutical limitation being their relatively short duration of action. A particularly good example of this phenomenon is glucagon‐like peptide 1 (GLP), a hormone of appreciable interest for the treatmen
