The proteolytic processing of polyproteins by the 3CL protease of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus is essential for the viral propagation. A series of tripeptide ¦Á,¦Â-unsaturated esters and ketomethylene isosteres, including AG7088, are synthesized and assayed to target the 3CL protease. Though AG7088 is inactive (IC50 > 100 ¦ÌM), the ketomethylene isosteres and tripeptide ¦Á,¦Â-unsaturated esters containing both P1 and P2 phenylalanine residues show modest inhibitory activity (IC50 = 11-39 ¦ÌM). The Phe-Phe dipeptide inhibitors are designed on the basis of computer modeling of the enzyme-inhibitor complex. The most potent inhibitor (I) with an inhibition constant of 0.52 ¦ÌM is obtained by condensation of the Phe-Phe dipeptide ¦Á,¦Â-unsaturated ester with 4-(dimethylamino)cinnamic acid. The cell-based assays also indicate that I is a nontoxic anti-SARS agent with an EC50 value of 0.18 ¦ÌM.
