L-Alanyl-L-cystine
L-Alanyl-L-cystine, a dipeptide composed of L-alanine and L-cysteine, has diverse applications in biomedical research, nutrition, and pharmaceuticals. As a model dipeptide, it helps researchers analyze how amino acid sequences affect peptide folding, stability, and interactions. For example, studies may explore how the alanine-cysteine linkage influences hydrogen bonding or hydrophobic effects in larger protein structures. Enzyme Substrate Research L-Alanyl-L-cystine can serve as a substrate for peptidases (enzymes that break down peptides) to study enzyme specificity and catalytic mechanisms. For instance, researchers might investigate how certain proteases cleave the peptide bond between alanine and cysteine. Cellular Uptake and Metabolism Studies As a dipeptide, L-Alanyl-L-cystine can be used to study how cells transport and metabolize peptides. This is relevant for understanding nutrient absorption in the intestines or peptide-based drug delivery systems.
