Application

Lysyltyrosyllysine (Lys-Tyr-Lys, KYK) is used together with uracil DNA glycosylase to quantify uracil. Lysyltyrosyllysine is also used as a model peptide to study free radical oxidation and electron capture mechanisms.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Tripeptide can induce nicks at apurinic/apyrimidinic sites in circular DNA.

Tripeptides containing aromatic residues between basic ones, such as Lys-Trp-Lys and Lys-Tyr-Lys can nick supercoiled or relaxed DNAs containing apurinic/apyrimidinic sites (AP-sites). The nicking, which is ionic strength-dependent, occurs at AP-sites, since native PM2 DNA is not hydrolyzed. The nicking
