Synthesis of homocarnosine for applications in bioactive peptide and functional food studies.
Homocarnosine is a brain-specific dipeptide composed of γ-aminobutyric acid and L-histidine. In contrast to its well-known analog carnosine, homocarnosine is under-explored and non-commercially available. Here, we report an in-house and practical procedure for solid-phase synthesis of homocarnosine yielding a purity of > 95%. Applications of the synthesized homocarnosine in in vitro assays exhibited antioxidant and muscle-fiber-cell viability activities.
