  • (2S,3R,4S)-N-[N-(N-benzyloxycarbonyl)-L-phenylalanyl]-L-alanyl-1-phenyl- 2-amino-3,4-epoxy-6-methylheptane, a tripeptidyl epoxide analogue of peptide substrates of the retroviral protease of the human immunodeficiency virus-1, is a potent, active-site directed, irreversible inactivator of this enzyme.
