Product Information

• Name: H-Gly-Gly-Sar-OH
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Gly-Gly-Sar is a synthetic peptide that acts as a substrate for the peptide transporter, which is part of the membrane of cells. It is an amide with a reactive group that can form a ternary complex with two hydroxyl ions and one proton. Gly-Gly-Sar has been shown to be taken up by caco-2 cells in an extravesicular manner and undergoes proteolysis by peptidases. This leads to bond cleavage and formation of free Gly-Gly and Sar. The free Gly and Gly are then transported across the cell membrane into the cell cytoplasm, where they are hydroxylated by enzymes such as glycyl-l-leucine hydroxylase to form glycolic acid and glyoxylic acid, respectively.
