High impact information on Glycylsarcosylsarcosine

  • We have investigated the relative contribution of hydrolysis, intact transport and urinary excretion to the renal clearance of Gly-Sar, Gly-Sar-Sar, and Gly-Gly-Sar in fed and starved rats [1].
  • 1. This paper describes the results of a survey of the effects of peptides and amino acids on uptake by rings of everted hamster jejunum in vitro of glycylsarcosylsarcosine, a tripeptide which is taken up by an active mechanism but is very resistant to hydrolysis, appearing intact in the rings [2].
  • Reasons are given for supposing that uptake of this peptide may be the result of Na+-dependent active transport by the same carrier as that utilized by glycylsarcosylsarcosine [3].
  • 3. The results add to information about the influence of molecular structure on intestinal uptake of peptides by the system used by glycylsarcosylsarcosine, which is shared by a wide range of other di- and tri-peptides [2].
