Analogue of Cucurbita maxima trypsin inhibitor III (CMTI-III) with AII L-cysteine residues substituted by L-penicillamine (Pen). Synthesis and evaluation of trypsin inhibitory activity
A 29-peptide, [ Pen(3,10,16,20,22,28) ] CMTI-III, an analogue of Cucurbita maxima trypsin inhibitor from squash seeds was synthesized by the solid phase method using the Fmoc chemistry. The inhibitory activity of the analogue, as measured by the association equilibrium constant (K-a) with bovine beta-trypsin, is of the same order of magnitude as that for the wild CMTI-III.
