5-oxo-L-prolyl-L-tryptophan

Description:

5-Oxo-L-prolyl-L-tryptophan, with the CAS number 35937-24-7, is a dipeptide derivative that combines the amino acids proline and tryptophan, featuring a keto group at the fifth position of the proline side chain. This compound is characterized by its unique structure, which includes a cyclic proline residue and an indole side chain from tryptophan, contributing to its potential biological activity. It is soluble in polar solvents, reflecting the hydrophilic nature of its amino acid components. The presence of the oxo group may influence its reactivity and interactions with biological targets, making it of interest in biochemical research. Additionally, this compound may exhibit properties relevant to peptide synthesis and drug design, particularly in the context of neuroactive compounds due to tryptophan's role as a precursor to serotonin. Its stability, solubility, and potential bioactivity make it a subject of interest in medicinal chemistry and pharmacology. Further studies are necessary to fully elucidate its biological functions and therapeutic potential.

Pyr-Trp-OH

CAS: 35937-24-7

Pyr-Trp-OH is a derivative of tryptophan. It has been found to be active in the brain and its metabolites have been shown to inhibit superoxide production by inhibiting the activity of hydroxylase and dismutase. Pyr-Trp-OH also inhibits serotonin synthesis, which may contribute to its antidepressant properties. Pyr-Trp-OH is an inhibitor of indoleamine 2,3 dioxygenase, an enzyme that converts tryptophan into kynurenine. This process generates hydrogen peroxide, which can lead to cell death. The conversion of tryptophan into serotonin also produces hydrogen peroxide, so it is possible that Pyr-Trp-OH may have antioxidant effects as well as antidepressant effects.
