DL-2,3-Diaminopropionic acid monohydrochloride also known as 3-Amino-DL-alanine monohydrochloride, is commonly used in solution phase peptide synthesis.

There is a grave need for safer antiplatelet therapeutics to prevent heart attack and stroke. Agents targeting the interaction of platelets with the diseased vessel wall could impact vascular disease with minimal effects on normal hemostasis. We targeted integrin alpha(2)beta(1)

Diaminopropionate ammonia lyase (DAPAL) is a pyridoxal-5'phosphate (PLP)-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of diaminopropionate (DAP) to pyruvate and ammonia and plays an important role in cell metabolism. We have investigated the role of the ygeX gene of Escherichia coli
Zwittermicin A (ZwA) is a hybrid polyketide-non-ribosomal peptide that is thought to be biosynthesized from five proposed building blocks, including the 2,3-diaminopropionate. Candidate genes for de novo biosynthesis of 2,3-diaminopropionate, zwa5A and zwa5B, have been identified in a previous study.
Here we report a novel class of peptides-d-diaminopropionic acids (Dap)-for gene delivery. These peptides have attractive properties for gene delivery, and the advantage that they can be easily manipulated in relation to their composition, abiding with tailored-design. We characterized the
Siderophores are iron-scavenging molecules produced by many microbes. In general, they are synthesized using either non-ribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) or NRPS-independent siderophore (NIS) pathways. Staphylococcus aureus produces siderophores, of which the structures of staphyloferrin A and staphyloferrin B are known.
