DL-2,3-Diaminopropionic acid monohydrochloride also known as 3-Amino-DL-alanine monohydrochloride, is commonly used in solution phase peptide synthesis.
In this work, we report a synthetic approach to a Fmoc-protected nucleoamino acid, based on L-diaminopropanoic acid, carrying the DNA nucleobase on the alpha-amino group by means of an amide bond, suitable for the solid-phase synthesis of novel nucleopeptides of
Here we report a novel class of peptides-d-diaminopropionic acids (Dap)-for gene delivery. These peptides have attractive properties for gene delivery, and the advantage that they can be easily manipulated in relation to their composition, abiding with tailored-design. We characterized the
Zwittermicin A (ZwA) is a hybrid polyketide-non-ribosomal peptide that is thought to be biosynthesized from five proposed building blocks, including the 2,3-diaminopropionate. Candidate genes for de novo biosynthesis of 2,3-diaminopropionate, zwa5A and zwa5B, have been identified in a previous study.
Siderophores are iron-scavenging molecules produced by many microbes. In general, they are synthesized using either non-ribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) or NRPS-independent siderophore (NIS) pathways. Staphylococcus aureus produces siderophores, of which the structures of staphyloferrin A and staphyloferrin B are known.

Diaminopropionate ammonia lyase (DAPAL) is a pyridoxal-5'phosphate (PLP)-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of diaminopropionate (DAP) to pyruvate and ammonia and plays an important role in cell metabolism. We have investigated the role of the ygeX gene of Escherichia coli
