We report the identification of potent agonists of the Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor (GLP-1R). These compounds are short, 11 amino acid peptides containing several unnatural amino acids, including (in particular) analogs of homohomophenylalanine (hhPhe) at the C-terminal position. Typically the functional

L-Homophenylalanine (L-HPA) and N(6)-protected-2-oxo-6-amino-hexanoic acid (N(6)-protected-OAHA) can be used as building blocks for the manufacture of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors. To synthesize L-HPA and N(6)-protected-OAHA simultaneously from 2-oxo-4-phenylbutanoic acid (OPBA) and N(6)-protected-L-lysine, several variants of Escherichia coli aspartate aminotransferase (AAT) were

The effect of five topolins (meta-Topolin=mT; meta-Topolin riboside=mTR; meta-Methoxy topolin=MemT; meta-Methoxy topolin riboside=MemTR and 6-(meta-methoxy)-9-(tetrahydropyran-2-yl)-topolin=MemTTHP) on the photosynthetic pigments and leaf structures of micropropagated 'Williams' bananas was compared with the commonly used benzyladenine (BA). Surface-decontaminated explants were cultured for 70
