Abstract:Boc-Gly-Pro-DP, Z-Gly-Pro-DP, LA-Gly-Pro-DP, Boc-Gly-Pro-Srt, Z-Gly-Pro-Srt were synthesized for the first time. The stability of these compounds in the presence of leucine aminopeptidase, carboxypeptidase Y, carboxypeptidase B and proline endopeptidase (PEP) was determined. It turned out that the compounds are stable in the presence of aminopeptidases and carboxypeptidases. In the presence of PEP, dopamine (DP) and serotonin (Srt) are cleaved from the synthesized preparations. Thus, new proline-containing… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
