Biochem/physiol Actions

Alanyl dipeptides such as ala-leu, ala-lys, ala-gly, ala-pro, ala-tyr and ala-phe may be used in physicochemical studies or to evaluate dipeptide separation technologies. Alanyl dipeptides may also be used for studying cell uptake mechanisms, dipeptide metabolism or cell growth supplementation benefits.
L-alanylglycine is a simple nutritional dipeptide also used for physical chemistry studies such as hydrogen bonding and heavy metal complexation.

The methodology for the incorporation of azaamino-acid residues into peptides synthesised by a solid-phase method has been extended to allow azaalanine peptides to be prepared. In this way, Ac-Leu-Ser-Gly-azaAla-Gly-Phe-Ser-Leu-NH2 H-Ala-Ala-Lys-Glu-Ala-Ala-Glu-Ala -Ala-Glu-Lys-Ala-azaAla-Glu-Leu-Ala-Leu-N2H3, and H-Ala-azaAla-Lys-Glu-Ala-Ala-Glu-Ala-Ala-Glu-Lys-Ala-Ala-Glu-Leu-A la-Leu-N2H3 have been prepared.
