Biochem/physiol Actions

N-Acetyl-L-proline, an analog of the COOH-terminal dipeptide portion of preferred angiotensin-converting enzyme substrates, is use to probe the active site of angiotensin-converting enzyme(s). N-Acetyl-L-proline may be used to to identify, differentiate and characterized N-acyl-amino acid amidohydrolase(s)/aminoacylase(s). N-Acetyl-L-proline is used to study the physicochemical parameters of prolines.
N-acetyl-L-proline is an analog of the COOH-terminal dipeptide portion of preferred substrates of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). It may be used in studies of the binding of substrates and inhibitors by ACE and to differentiate the specificities of various aminoacylases.

The results of the ring conformational analysis of L-proline, N-acetyl-L-proline, and trans-4-hydroxy-L-proline by NMR combined with calculations using density functional theory (DFT) and molecular dynamics (MD) are reported. Accurate values of 1H-1H J-couplings in water and other solvents have been

The pH dependence of Ki for inhibition of prolidase by acetylproline, proline, and trans-1,2-cyclopentanedicarboxylate follows a different pattern in each case, although deprotonation of an enzymic functional group with a pKa value of 6.6 perturbs ligand binding in every instance.
