N-terminally modified tetrapeptide derivatives having a C-terminal arginine mimetic as antiviral protease inhibitors

The invention at hand provides novel inhibitors for human proprotein convertase, which have antibacterial and antiviral effects. These inhibitors are multibasic, N-terminally modified tetrapeptide derivatives having a C-terminal P1-arginine mimetic. In contrast to previous active substances against bacterial and viral diseases, the substances presented here do not apply to the pathogenic organism, but the host, so that there is no development of resistance to contend with.
