Gly-Gly-His

General description

Gly-Gly-His (GGH) tripeptide with carboxyl-terminal histidine residue is hydrophilic.

Application

Gly-Gly-His has been used:
  • as a peptide test probe in the hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) studies
  • in the electrochemical modification of back-side contact transducers (BSC) electrodes in copper (Cu2+) sensing studies
  • for the fabrication carbon nanotube electrode for detection of Cu2+ ions

Biochem/physiol Actions

Gly-Gly-His (GGH) tripeptide displays the affinity of copper (Cu2+) complexation. These complexes display good skin tolerance and may be useful in wound healing. GGH copper complexes are proposed to reduce tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α)-based interleukin 6 (IL-6) secretion by in vivo studies with fibroblasts. GGH is used in comparative studies with other imidazole-containing peptides such as carnosine. An area of active application research involves the GGH binding of copper ions.

A novel electrochemical biosensor based on functionalized polypyrrole (PPy) nanotube arrays modified with a tripeptide (Gly-Gly-His) proved to be highly effective for electrochemical analysis of copper ions (Cu(2+)). The vertically oriented PPy nanotube arrays were electropolymerized by using modified zinc

We have recently shown that S-nitrosothiols (RSNOs) decompose in aqueous buffer to give nitric oxide, an important signalling molecule, and the corresponding disulphides. This occurs by reaction with Cu+ generated from Cu2+ (supplied as hydrated Cu2+) by thiolate reduction. To

A novel phosphorylcholine type zwitterionic stationary phase was synthesized by graft polymerization of 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine onto the surface of porous silica particles. The resulting material possesses both negatively charged phosphoric acid and positively charged quaternary ammonium groups, which renders it

Metallopeptides containing both the complex Cu(2+)-glycyl-glycyl-histidine (Cu-GGH) and the sequence WRWYCR were shown to possess antimicrobial activity against a variety of pathogenic bacteria, as well as bind to and cleave a variety of nucleic acids, suggesting potential mechanisms for antimicrobial
