Hippuryl-L-phenylalanine has been used as a substrate for screening carboxypeptidase activity in Trogoderma granarium,[1]Bactrocera oleae Gmelin[2] and Apodiphus amygdali.[3]
Biochem/physiol Actions
Hippuryl-L-phenylalanine is a substrate for carboxypeptidase A enzyme.[4]
We have designed two radioactive substrates, hippuryl-L-[3H]phenylalanine and 3-(p-hydroxy, m-[125I]phenyl)propionic acid ([125I]Bolton reagent) derivative of L-arginyl-L-phenylalanine, i.e. [125I]BRF, for a highly sensitive assay of carboxypeptidase A (CPA) activity. After cleavage of the C-terminal phenylalanine residue by CPA, the radioactive product

The harmful bloom-forming cyanobacterium Planktothrix is commonly considered to be nutritionally inadequate for zooplankton grazers, resulting in limited top-down control. However, interactions between Planktothrix and zooplankton grazers are poorly understood. The food quality of Planktothrix is potentially constrained by morphological

3,3-Diphenylpropanoate (DPP) activates the carboxypeptidase A catalyzed hydrolysis of benzoylglycyl-L-phenylalanine (BzGly-L-Phe) (Ka = 2.1 x 10 (-3) M) and inhibits ester hydrolysis uncompetitively (K1 =2.1 X 10 (-3) M). A common modifier binding site located adjacent to the peptide and
