Structure–activity relationship of antioxidant dipeptides: Dominant role of Tyr, Trp, Cys and Met residues

Structure–activity relationship of antioxidant dipeptides: Dominant role of Tyr, Trp, Cys and Met residues

Antioxidant activities of amino acids and synthetic dipeptides were studied to elucidate the structure–activity relationship of antioxidant dipeptides. Results showed that Tyr- and Trp-containing dipeptides showed the highest radical scavenging activities in both ABTS and ORAC assays with Trolox equ...
