A peptomeric library consisting of 360 monocyclic analogues of trypsin inhibitor SFTI-1 isolated from sunflower seeds was designed and synthesized by a solid-phase approach in order to select chymotrypsin and cathepsin G inhibitors. All peptomers contained a proteinogenic-Phe-mimicking N-benzylglycine (Nphe) at positions 5 and 12. Into the synthesized library, different peptoid monomers were introduced in the 7-10 segment. Deconvolution of the library against both proteinases through an iterative method in solution revealed that the strongest chymotrypsin inhibitory activity was displayed by two analogues, [Nphe(5,12)]SFTI-1 (1) and [Nphe(5,12), Naem(8)]SFTI-1 (2), where Naem stands for N-(2-morpholinoethyl)glycine. After deconvolution against a cathepsin G analogue, [Nphe(5,12), Npip(8,9), Nnle(10)] SFTI-1 (3) (Npip = N-(3,4-methylenedioxybenzyl)glycine) appeared to be the most potent inhibitor with a high serum stability. It is worth noting that the analogues obtained by a combinatorial approach display high specificity towards one of the experimental enzymes. Another interesting feature is the lack of Pro8 in analogues 2 and 3, the amino acid residue absolutely conserved in the family of Bownan-Birk inhibitors.
