A new cytochrome C reducing dipeptide.

J. Natl. Med. Assoc. 82 , 113-116, (1990)

Using absorption spectroscopy, it has been found that tyrosylphenylalanine specifically reduces cytochrome C. This effect is pH and concentration dependent with the EC +/- SE = 4.42 x 10(-3) M. At 10(...

The effect of neighboring methionine residue on tyrosine nitration and oxidation in peptides treated with MPO, H2O2, and NO2(-) or peroxynitrite and bicarbonate: role of intramolecular electron transfer mechanism?

Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 484 , 134-145, (2009)

Recent reports suggest that intramolecular electron transfer reactions can profoundly affect the site and specificity of tyrosyl nitration and oxidation in peptides and proteins. Here we investigated ...

Interaction between cytochrome C and di- and tripeptides.

Life Sci. 48 , 523-530, (1991)

By observing changes in the absorbance spectrum between 340 and 650 nm, we found that tyrosyltyrosylphenylalanine (TTP) interacts with cytochrome C (CC). TTP caused the characteristic changes of CC re...
