Abstract: | Two pentapeptides Phe-Leu-X-Glu-Val where X is either the L-threo-gamma-methylglutamic acid or the L-erythro isomer have been synthesized and tested as substrates in the vitamin K dependent carboxylation. The gamma-methylglutamic residue is not carboxylated and both peptides are inhibitors of the carboxylation of the reference peptide Phe-Leu-Glu-Glu-Val. The threo containing isomer has a much better affinity than the reference and is the best inhibitor of this reaction described so far. |
