Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> α, β-Epoxyketones are an important class of bacterial natural products with wide-ranging potential applications in oncology, immunology, and infectious disease. Their clinical potential derives from the α, β-epoxyketone pharmacophore, which covalently modifies the N -terminal catalytic threonine residue of proteasome β-subunits with high selectivity. Although a synthetic α, β-epoxyketone (Carfi...
