Abstract
A variety of lipophilic 2‐oxoamides containing sulfonamide analogs of γ‐amino acids as well as acyl sulfonamides of γ‐aminobutyric acid were synthesized. Their ability to inhibit intracellular GIVA cPLA~2~ and GVIA iPLA~2~ as well as secreted GV sPLA~2~ was evaluated. The sulfonamide group seems a bioisosteric group suitable to replace the carboxyl group in 2‐oxoamide inhibitors of GVIA cPLA~2~. Copyright © 2008 European Peptide Society and John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

## Abstract An efficient method for the preparation of optically active derivatives of γ‐amino‐butenoic acids and their cyclic derivatives, 2‐amino‐pyrrolin‐4‐ones, from α‐amino acids is described. Partial racemization accompanies the formation of initial unsaturated γ‐amino‐β‐hydroxy esters **5–8*
The role of aspartic acid49 (Asp-49) in the active site of porcine pancreatic phospholipase A2 was studied by recombinant DNA techniques: two mutant proteins were constructed containing either glutamic acid (Glu) or lysine (Lys) at position 49. Enzymatic characterization indicated that the presence
