H-Met-Asp-OH

Description:

H-Met-Asp-OH, also known as L-Methionyl-L-aspartic acid, is a dipeptide composed of the amino acids methionine and aspartic acid. It is characterized by the presence of a methionine residue, which contains a sulfur atom, contributing to its unique properties, such as its hydrophobic nature. The aspartic acid component introduces a carboxylic acid group, making the molecule polar and capable of participating in hydrogen bonding. This dipeptide is often studied in the context of protein synthesis and metabolism, as well as its potential roles in various biological processes. H-Met-Asp-OH may exhibit antioxidant properties due to the presence of methionine, which can scavenge free radicals. Additionally, its structure allows it to interact with various biological receptors, potentially influencing cellular signaling pathways. The compound is typically soluble in water, reflecting the polar nature of its constituent amino acids. Overall, H-Met-Asp-OH serves as an important model for understanding peptide interactions and functions in biological systems.

H-Met-Asp-OH

CAS: 14595-65-4

H-Met-Asp-OH is a synthetic formyl peptide that was designed to be hydrolyzed by proteolytic enzymes. It has been shown to be able to inhibit the formation of β-amyloid, which is associated with Alzheimer's disease. H-Met-Asp-OH also has been shown to have physicochemical properties similar to aspirin, and can be used as an antiplatelet agent. In addition, it has been shown to act as a catalase inhibitor in vitro and may have some therapeutic potential for the treatment of diabetes mellitus type 2.
