==Overview==
==Overview==
Caspase-1 is a key endopeptidase responsible for the post-translational, processing of the IL-1beta and IL-18 cytokines and small-molecule, inhibitors that modulate the activity of this enzyme are predicted to be, important therapeutic treatments for many inflammatory diseases. A, fragment-assembly approach, accompanied by structural analysis, was, employed to generate caspase-1 inhibitors. With the aid of Tethering with, extenders (small molecules that bind to the active-site cysteine and, contain a free thiol), two novel fragments that bound to the active site, and made a disulfide bond with the extender were identified by mass, spectrometry. Direct linking of each fragment to the extender generated, submicromolar reversible inhibitors that significantly reduced secretion, of IL-1beta but not IL-6 from human peripheral blood mononuclear cells., Thus, Tethering with extenders facilitated rapid identification and, synthesis of caspase-1 inhibitors with cell-based activity and subsequent, structural analyses provided insights into the enzyme's ability to, accommodate different inhibitor-binding modes in the active site.
