, p. 2170 - 2176 (2016/10/24)
Protolytic equilibria in aqueous solutions of glycyl-DL-serine, glycyl-DL-threonine, and glycyl-DL-valine are investigated by means of potentiometry and calorimetry. Dissociation constants and heat effects of the above dipeptides are determined. Standard
Disulfide bridged cyclic peptides containing a cgridri sequence useful in control of hypertension

Disulfide bridged cyclic peptides are described which are preferably 13 to 20 amino acid residues in length and which include the endocyclic sequence cys-gly-arg-ile-asp-arg-ile. Peptides of this class are selective for and show picomolar-range affinity for the non-guanyl cyclase-coupled atrial peptide receptor. Affinity for this receptor is associated with potentiation of the mean arterial pressure response to atrial peptide and these peptides are therefore useful in control of hypertension. Peptides of most interest are of the formula wherein X1 is the peptidic fragment ser-ser; wherein X2 is a peptidic fragment selected from gly-ser-gly-leu, gly-ala-gly-leu and gly-leu; wherein X3 is the peptidic fragment asn-ser-phe-arg; wherein m is zero or one, n is one and r is one; and wherein A represents an amino terminus or its pharmaceutically--acceptable salt, and B represents a carboxyl terminus or its pharmaceutically-acceptable ester, amide or salt.
