L-Arginyl-L-alanine

Description:

L-Arginyl-L-alanine, with the CAS number 40968-45-4, is a dipeptide composed of the amino acids L-arginine and L-alanine. This compound is characterized by its structure, which features a peptide bond linking the carboxyl group of L-alanine to the amino group of L-arginine. L-Arginyl-L-alanine is typically white to off-white in appearance and is soluble in water, making it suitable for various biochemical applications. It plays a role in biological processes, particularly in protein synthesis and metabolism. The presence of arginine contributes to its potential physiological functions, including involvement in nitric oxide production and immune response modulation. Additionally, this dipeptide may exhibit antioxidant properties and could be explored for its potential benefits in nutrition and health supplements. As with many peptides, its stability and activity can be influenced by factors such as pH and temperature, which are important considerations in its handling and application in research or therapeutic contexts.

H-Arg-Ala-OH acetate salt

CAS: 40968-45-4

H-Arg-Ala-OH acetate salt (HAA) is a histidine analogue that has been found to have physiological function as an endogenous substrate for serine protease. HAA acts as a competitive inhibitor of the serine protease enzyme by binding to the active site serine in the active site. The molecule is a disulfide bond and can be synthesized by the microorganism Corynebacterium glutamicum. This salt was extracted from yellowtail and found to inhibit corynebacterium glutamicum. X-ray absorption studies showed that the molecule contains a single amino acid, which is an analog of histidine.
