Common NameArginyl-L-arginine
DescriptionArginyl-L-arginine is a dipeptide belonging to the class of amino acid derivatives. Its chemical structure consists of two arginine residues linked by a peptide bond, which contributes to its unique properties and potential biological roles. This compound is involved in various biochemical pathways, particularly those related to protein metabolism and signaling. Notably, it has been studied in the context of enzymatic activity, where it was shown that cathepsin B-like activity was not identified with substrates such as Z-RR-AMC (N-α-benzyloxycarbonyl-L-arginyl-L-arginine-7-amido-4-methyl-coumarin) and Z-FR-AMC, indicating specific interactions and potential regulatory mechanisms in proteolytic processes (PMID:31215796 ). The presence of arginyl-L-arginine in biological systems may influence various physiological functions, although its precise roles and mechanisms of action require further investigation.
