Abstrakt     Low molecular weight synthetic inhibitors are tools for studies of the physiological role of enzymes. Determination of the crystal structure of NS-134, a cathepsin B inhibitor, in complex with the bovine cathepsin B is part of development of double-head epoxisuccinyl based inhibitors of lysosomal cysteine proteases. The structure has confirmed the correctness of modeling of the structure of binding geometry of novel inhibitors on the basis of known crystal structures of the complexes of inhibitors bound into the active site cleft of lysosomal cysteine proteases. The structure interpretation revealed that selectivity and affinity of binding of these inhibitors are not additive factors and that design of a successful inhibitor is actually a compromise taking into account both factors.
