Abstract

This invention relates to novel biologically active molecules which bind to and inhibit thrombin. These molecules comprise a catalytic site directed moiety (CSDM) of the formula ##STR1## wherein X is hydrogen or is characterized by a backbone chain consisting of from 1 to 100 atoms; R.sub.1 is selected from the group consisting of unsubstituted, monosubstituted, di-substituted and tri-substituted saturated ring structures; R.sub.2 is a bond or is characterized by a backbone chain consisting of from 1 to 5 atoms; R.sub.3 is a bond or is characterized by a backbone chain consisting of from 1 to 3 atoms; R.sub.4 is any amino acid; R.sub.5 is any L-amino acid which comprises a guanidinium- or amino-containing side chain group; R.sub.6 is a non-amide bond; and Y is characterized by a backbone chain consisting of from 1 to 9 atoms; or the formula: ##STR2## wherein R'.sub.1 is selected from the group consisting of unsubstituted, mono-substituted, di-substituted and tri-substituted ring structures; R'.sub.4 is any amino acid comprising a side chain group characterized by the capacity to accept a hydrogen bond at a pH of between about 5.5 and 9.5; and X, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.5, R.sub.6 a…
