Radical cations [Met-Gly](•+), [Gly-Met](•+), and [Met-Met](•+) have been generated through collision-induced dissociation (CID) of [Cu(II)(CH3CN)2(peptide)](•2+) complexes. Their fragmentation patterns and dissociation mechanisms have been studied both experimentally and theoretically using density functional theory at the UB3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level. The captodative structure
Crystallographic analysis of a solid solution of two diastereoisomers, i.e. ({(1S,R)-1-carboxy-3-[(R,S)-methylsulfinyl]propyl}aminocarbonyl)methanaminium tetrachloridoaurate(III) and ({(1S,R)-1-carboxy-3-[(S,R)-methylsulfinyl]propyl}aminocarbonyl)methanaminium tetrachloridoaurate(III), (C(7)H(15)N(2)O(4)S)[AuCl(4)], has shown that in the presence of gold(III), the methionine part of the Gly-D,L-Met dipeptide is oxidized to sulfoxide, and no coordination to the

Time-resolved chemically induced dynamic nuclear polarization (CIDNP) was applied to the investigation of the photo-oxidation of two sulfur containing peptides, glycylmethionine (Gly-Met) and methionylglycine (Met-Gly). It was established that the reaction of Gly-Met with a photosensitizer, triplet 4-carboxybenzophenone, occurs via
Radical scavenging activities of Tyr-, Trp-, Cys- and Met-Gly and their protective effects against AAPH-induced oxidative damage in erythrocytes were evaluated in this study. This damage includes hemolysis, oxidation of hemoglobin, formation of MDA and the depletion of glutathione (GSH)
