Uses
γ-Glu-Tyr, a competitive inhibitor of dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) (IC50=6.77 mM), is a potentially functional component of the type 2 diabetes diet[1].
Definition
ChEBI: Gamma-Glu-Tyr is a dipeptide composed of L-glutamic acid and L-tyrosine joined by a peptide linkage. It has a role as a human metabolite. It is a dipeptide, a secondary carboxamide, a dicarboxylic acid, a primary amino compound and a member of phenols. It is functionally related to a L-glutamic acid and a L-tyrosine. It is a conjugate acid of a gamma-Glu-Tyr(1-).
