Leucylalanine (Leu-Ala) is useful to produce non-electrolytic triorganotin (IV) derivatives (R3Sn(HL)) to study the models of metal-protein interactions.
Application
Leu-Ala hydrate has been used as a substrate in Tris-hydrochloride (HCl) buffer to analyze the leucine-alanine peptidase (LAP) activity in larvae.
Leucylalanine (Leu-Ala) is use to make non-electrolytic triorganotin(IV) derivatives (general formulae R3Sn(HL)) to study models of metal-protein interactions.
New triorganotin (IV) derivatives of dipeptides as models for metal-protein interactions: synthesis, structural characterization and biological studies.

Many microbes acquire metabolites in a "feeding" process where complex polymers are broken down in the environment to their subunits. The subsequent uptake of soluble metabolites by a cell, sometimes called osmotrophy, is facilitated by transporter proteins. As such, the

Structure-based design and synthesis of a number of potent and selective memapsin 2 inhibitors are described. These inhibitors were designed based upon the X-ray structure of memapsin 2-bound inhibitor 3 that incorporates methylsulfonyl alanine as the P2-ligand and a substituted
Structure-based design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of a series of peptidomimetic beta-secretase inhibitors incorporating hydroxyethylamine isosteres are described. We have identified inhibitor 24 which has shown exceedingly potent activity in memapsin 2 enzyme inhibitory (K(i) 1.8 nM) and cellular (IC(50)=1

7TM receptors are easily fused to proteins such as G proteins and arrestin but because of the fact that their terminals are found on each side of the membrane they cannot be joined directly in covalent dimers. Here, we use
