Solvent effects on the redox properties of ferrocenoyl-dipeptides
Baker,Kraatz,Quail
, p. 427 - 433 (2001)
The preparation and characterization of the novel ferrocenoyl-dipeptides, Fc-Asp(OBzl)-Asp(OBzl)-OBzl (5), Fc-Asp(OBzl)-Glu(OEt)-OEt (6) and Fc-Asp(OBzl)-Cys(Bzl)-OMe (7) are reported. In addition, Fc-Asp(OBzl)-OBzl (4) and its free acid, Fc-Asp(OH)-OH (8), were prepared. A crystal structure determination of 8 revealed an extensive H-bonding network involving a solvent molecule and adjacent molecules of 8 and suggests that these complexes are able to form strong hydrogen bonds with solvent molecules. All compounds show reversible one-electron oxidations in solution. The half-wave potential is strongly influenced by the nature of the solvent and correlates with the hydrogen donor ability α of the Kamlet-Taft formalism.

Conjugates of 2′-deoxyadenosine monophosphate with dipeptides have been synthesized and tested as substrates for several polymerases. Although the incorporation efficiency is not very high, it demonstrates that some of these dipeptides can be accommodated in the active site of polymerases and function as leaving groups in the enzymatic synthesis of DNA.

Bone targeting prodrugs based on peptide dendrimers, synthesis and hydroxyapatite binding in vitro
Ouyanga, Liang,Huang, Wencai,Hea, Gu,Guo, Li
experimental part, p. 272 - 277 (2010/04/23)
Novel bone targeting naproxen prodrugs with poly(aspartic acid) moieties and with two and three poly(aspartic acid) sequences peptide dendrimers were synthesized using a conventional method. The modified naproxen conjugates were incubated with hydroxyapatite in PBS at physiological conditions over 16h. The study revealed the hydroxyapatite binding properties of poly(aspartic acid) and it was found that the peptide dendrimer prodrugs exhibited a faster initial binding and a greater total binding. The obtained binding data in vitro indicated that the peptide dendrimers with poly(aspartic acid) sequences were useful for the development of new bone targeting molecules for drug delivery to bone.
Synthesis of acyclic and dehydroaspartic acid analogues of Ac-Asp-Glu-OH and their inhibition of rat brain N-acetylated α-linked acidic dipeptidase (NAALA dipeptidase)

The following structural and conformationally constrained analogues of Ac-Asp-Glu-OH (1) were synthesized: Ac-Glu-Glu-OH (2), Ac-D-Asp-Glu-OH (3), Ac-Glu-Asp-OH (4), Ac-Asp-Asp-OH (5), Ac-Asp-3-aminohexanedioic acid (6), Ac-3-amino-3-(carboxymethyl)propanoyl-Glu-OH (7), N-succinyl-Glu-OH (8), N-maleyl-Glu-OH (9), N-fumaryl-Glu-OH (10), and Ac-Δ(z)Asp-Glu-OH (11). These analogues were evaluated for their ability to inhibit the hydrolysis of Ac-Asp-[3,4-3H]-Glu-OH by N-acetylated α-linked acidic dipeptidase (NAALA dipeptidase) in order to gain some insight into the structural requirements for the inhibition of this enzyme. Analogues 4-6 and 9 were very weak inhibitors of NAALA dipeptidase (K(i) > 40 μM), while 2, 3, and 7 with K(i) values ranging from 3.2-8.5 μM showed intermediate inhibitory activity. The most active inhibitors of NAALA dipeptidase were compounds 8, 10, and 11 with K(i) values of 0.9, 0.4, and 1.4 μM, respectively. These results suggest that the relative spacing between the side chain carboxyl and the α-carboxyl group of the C-terminal residue may be important for binding to the active site of the enzyme. They also indicate that the χ1 torsional angle for the aspartyl residue is in the vicinity of 0°.
