Progress in modification of bioactive peptides with non-protein amino acids and their application in the studies of structure-activity relationship

The diversity of structure and physiological activity of non - protein amino acids is briefly described. Some peptides containing non - protein amino acid residues are introduced and the essential roles of these residues are discussed. Recent progress in modifying the bioactive peptides with non - protein amino acids and their preferences are generally reviewed.link_to_subscribed_fulltex
