Nearest-Neighbor Interactions and Their Influence on the Structural Aspects of Dipeptides [PDF]
In this theoretical study, the role of the side chain moiety of C-terminal residue in influencing the structural and molecular properties of dipeptides is analyzed by considering a series of seven dipeptides.

Feedback Regulation of Cathepsin C by the Propeptide Dipeptides of Granzymes A and B
Granzymes A and B are activated by proteolytic removal of their N-terminal dipeptides by cathepsin C (dipeptidyl-peptidase I). However, the possible physiological role of the cleaved dipeptides Glu-Lys and Gly-Glu is not yet understood.

The female schistosome's dependence on the male to reach sexual maturity has puzzled scientists for decades. Using various molecular techniques, Chen et al. dissect the synthesis pathway of the β-alanyl-tryptamine dipeptide (BATT), emitted by the male into its environment, which induces sexual maturation and egg-laying in the female.

Density Functional Studies on Secondary Amides: Role of Steric Factors in Cis/Trans Isomerization
Cis/trans isomerization of amide bonds is a key step in a wide range of biological and synthetic processes. Occurring through C-N amide bond rotation, it also coincides with the activation of amides in enzymatic hydrolysis.

Dipeptide Absorption in Cystinuria [PDF]
Absorption of a dipeptide and its constituent amino-acids has been studied by a perfusion technique in a patient with cystinuria and in a normal subject. Though the cystinuric patient was unable to absorb the dibasic amino-acid lysine in its free form, the dipeptide glycyl-L-lysine was well absorbed.
