N-Formyl-Met-Leu-Phe-o-fluorobenzylamide is a C-terminal blocked derivative of the chemotatic/chemoattractant tripeptide fMLF. N-Formyl-Met-Leu-Phe-o-fluorobenzylamide may be used to probe human formyl peptide receptors and fMLF functions.

Chemotaxis is fundamental to the directional migration of neutrophils toward endogenous and exogenous chemoattractants. Recent studies have demonstrated that ADF/cofilin superfamily members play important roles in reorganizing the actin cytoskeleton by disassembling actin filaments. GMFG, a novel ADF/cofilin superfamily protein
Antibodies that selectively bind to N-formylmethionyl leucyl phenylalanine (fMLF, also known as fMLP) have been generated. These antibodies bound to fMLF with higher affinity than to non-formylated peptide MLF: the differences in the binding energies between fMLF and MLF were
A D-methionine-containing peptide, Trp-Lys-Tyr-Met-Val-D-Met-NH(2) (WKYMVm), featuring a unique receptor specificity was investigated with respect to its ability to activate neutrophil effector functions. The peptide was found to be more potent than the N-formylated peptide N-formyl-Met-Leu-Phe (fMLF) at inducing neutrophil chemotaxis

Conformational energy analyses were carried out on the chemotactic tripeptide fMLF (CHO-Met-Leu-Phe) and three analogs fALF (CHO-Ala-Leu-Phe). fMF (CHO-Met-Phe), and MLF (H-Met-Leu-Phe). A near-folded or puckered conformation predominates in all four peptides. The calculated average end-to-end distance R of each

Calpain inhibitors, including peptide aldehydes (N-acetyl-Leu-Leu-Nle-CHO and N-acetyl-Leu-Leu-Met-CHO) and α-mercapto-acrylic acid derivatives (PD150606 and PD151746), have been shown to stimulate phagocyte functions via activation of human formyl peptide receptor (hFPR) and/or hFPR-like 1 (hFPRL1). Using the homology modeling of the
