The human oligopeptide transporter (PEPT1) is a critical transporter of dipeptides, tripeptides, and peptide-like drugs, including β-lactam and cephalosporin antibiotics, and ACE inhibitors. Therefore, there is an effort to understand better the transport mechanism and substrate requirements of PEPT1 to improve drug uptake.N-L-Glutamyl-L-Lysine is a dipeptide that naturally occurs in the body during protein degradation. It has been used in functional transport assays with other dipeptides to understand PEPT1 binding specificity with substrates and how this affects the conformation. N-L-Glutamyl-L-Lysine, along with other short peptides, is a vital tool in studying facilitator transporters like PEPT1. N-L-Glutamyl-L-Lysine has two charges and forms an intramolecular salt bridge that places the side chains in close proximity to fit the transporter better. N-L-Glutamyl-L-Lysine has helped understand that PEPT1 doesn't bind all dipeptides, and not all bound peptides are transported. Further work with N-L-Glutamyl-L-Lysine could further define the structure&minus-transport relationships of PEPT1 for better drug transportation.
