  • Publication number: 20140051641
    Abstract: Peptide-based compounds including heteroatom-containing, three-membered rings efficiently and selectively inhibit specific activities of N-terminal nucleophile (Ntn) hydrolases associated with the proteasome. The peptide-based compounds include an epoxide or aziridine, and functionalization at the N-terminus. Among other therapeutic utilities, the peptide-based compounds are expected to display anti-inflammatory properties and inhibition of cell proliferation. Oral administration of these peptide-based proteasome inhibitors is possible due to their bioavailability profiles.

  • Publication number: 20140024661
    Abstract: A group of fused two ring pyrimidine compounds having a heterocycles substituent at the 2 position and a substituted amine at the 4 position as well as optional aliphatic, functional and/or aromatic components substituted at other positions of the pyrimidine and other ring are disclosed. In addition a group of quinazoline compounds having similar substituents at the 2 and 4 positions as well as at other positions are disclosed. These compounds are inhibitors of the AAA proteasome complex containing p97 and are effective medicinal agents for treatment of diseases associated with p97 bioactivity.
