  1. Abstract:

    Structure-based design, chemical synthesis and biochemical testing of a series of novel Smac peptido-mimetics as inhibitors of XIAP protein are described. The most potent compound, 6j, has a binding affinity (K-i value) of 24 nM to XIAP BIR3 protein and is 24 times more potent than the native Smac AVPI peptide. Further optimization of these potent Smac mimetics may ultimately lead to the development of a novel class of anticancer drugs for the treatment of human cancer by overcoming apoptosis-resistance of cancer cells through targeting the inhibitor of apoptosis proteins.
