A replicate heart-cut column-switching HPLC method combined with two switching valves was newly developed for the simultaneous determination of three antihypertensive peptides (Ala-Phe, Tyr-Pro, and Trp-Tyr) in tryptic casein hydrolysate in one run-in assay. After a first separation on an

A ligand-exchange capillary electrophoresis was explored, with L-ornithine as the ligand and copper(II) as the central ion. Its applicability was demonstrated with underivatized and dansyl amino acids, a dipeptide, and drugs with amino alcohol structure. The enantioselectivity was found to

The separation of stereoisomers, particularly enantiomers, is important when their physiological activity differs. We have resolved the four stereoisomers each of alanylphenylalanine (Ala-Phe) and of leucylphenylalanine (Leu-Phe) by capillary electrophoresis using beta-cyclodextrin as a buffer additive and urea to enhance
Kyung Min Choi et al.

A spectrophotometric assay to determine peptide transport has been developed. Using two chromogenic peptide mimetics, L-phenylalanyl-L-2-sulfanilylglycine (PSG) and L-phenylalanyl-L-3-thiaphenylalanine (PSP), the peptide transport patterns in individual cell species can be evaluated effectively. After the addition of PSG to a HeLa

BacD is an ATP-dependent dipeptide ligase responsible for the biosynthesis of L-alanyl-L-anticapsin, a precursor of an antibiotic produced by Bacillus spp. In contrast to the well-studied and phylogenetically related D-alanine: D-alanine ligase (Ddl), BacD synthesizes dipeptides using L-amino acids as
