A class of Trp-Trp-AA-OBzl: Synthesis, in vitro anti-proliferation/in vivo anti-tumor evaluation, intercalation-mechanism investigation and 3D QSAR analysis
From the anti-tumor active N-tryptophanyl-β-carboline-3-carboxylic acid benzyl ester and β-carboline-3-carbonyltryptophan benzyl ester, a pharmacophore, Trp-Trp-OBzl, was drawn. Based on the DOCK scores amino acid residue was inserted into the C-terminus
