Abstract

A novel carboxypeptidase R (CPR) inhibiting peptide is prepared using rational structure-based strategies, incorporating two principle facts: (a) CPR has a strong affinity for basic amino acids and; and (b) the two lysines and arginine residues of PCI are orientated in the same direction and held in close spatial proximity by three disulfide bonds.
