Identification and design of vinyl sulfone inhibitors against Cryptopain-1 – a cysteine protease from cryptosporidiosis-causing <i>Cryptosporidium parvum</i>
2018-05-29
Abstract excerpt
Cryptosporidiosis, a disease marked by diarrhea in adults and stunted growth in children, is associated with the unicellular protozoan pathogen Cryptosporidium; often the species parvum . Cryptopain-1, a cysteine protease characterized in the genome of Cryptosporidium parvum , had been earlier shown to be inhibited by a vinyl sulfone compound called K11777 (or K-777). Cysteine proteases have long been establish...
