Proteins or poly-L-lysine which were incubated in the presence of ascorbic acid, dehydroascorbic acid (ascorbylation), or various sugars (glycation) were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). To also detect more labile reaction products, the Maillard modified proteins or poly-L-lysine were

Kinetic studies were made of the hydrolysis by trypsin of alpha-N-acetylglycyl-L-lysine methyl ester and of its neutral analogue alpha-N-acetylglycyl-epsilon-N-formyl-L-lysine methyl ester. The latter substance is a moderately good substrate for trypsin, and this observation is discussed in terms of the

From the reaction between l-lysine and formaldehyde, Nepsilon-formyl-L-lysine was isolated by means of ion-exchange column chromatography. The identification of Nepsilon-formyl-L-lysine was carried out by ion-exchange overpressured-layer chromatography (OPLC) and 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectroscopies. The m.p. and mixed m.p.
