Biochem/physiol Actions

Alanyl dipeptides such as ala-leu, ala-lys, ala-gly, ala-pro, ala-tyr and ala-phe may be used in physicochemical studies or to evaluate dipeptide separation technologies. Alanyl dipeptides may also be used for studying cell uptake mechanisms, dipeptide metabolism or cell growth supplementation benefits.
L-alanylglycine is a simple nutritional dipeptide also used for physical chemistry studies such as hydrogen bonding and heavy metal complexation.

We introduce a new symmetry-based method for structural investigations of areas surrounding water-exchanging hydrogens in biomolecules by liquid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Native structures of peptides and proteins can be solved by NMR with fair resolution, with the notable exception

Major breakthroughs have recently been reported that can help overcome two inherent drawbacks of NMR: the lack of sensitivity and the limited memory of longitudinal magnetization. Dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) couples nuclear spins to the large reservoir of electrons, thus
