  • Thiepane compounds
    Patent number: 6034118
    Abstract: Tri- and tetra substituted thiepane compositions having use as immunogens, therapeutics, diagnostics and for other industrial purposes are disclosed. The compositions inhibit proteolytic activity of viral enzymes and are useful for the inhibition of such enzymes as well as in assays for the detection of such enzymes. Embodiments in which antigenic polypeptides are bonded to the compositions are useful in raising antibodies against the thiepane haptens or the polypeptide. Labeled thiepanes of this invention are useful as diagnostic reagents.
    Type: Grant
