H-Met-Pro-OH

Uses

H-Met-Pro-OH is a dipeptide containing methionine and proline. H-Met-Pro-OH is a substrate for aminopeptidase P (APP) and skin fibroblast prolidase[1][2].

Definition

ChEBI: Met-Pro is a dipeptide formed from L-methionine and L-proline residues. It has a role as a metabolite. It is functionally related to a L-methionine and a L-proline.
