  • Name: valylglycine
  • Description: Valyl-Glycine is a dipeptide composed of valine and glycine. It is an incomplete breakdown product of protein digestion or protein catabolism. Some dipeptides are known to have physiological or cel... l-signaling effects although most are simply short-lived intermediates on their way to specific amino acid degradation pathways following further proteolysis.
