GC-MS Studies on the Conversion and Derivatization of γ-Glutamyl Peptides to Pyroglutamate (5-Oxo-Proline) Methyl Ester Pentafluoropropione Amide Derivatives

Glutathione (γ-L-glutamyl-L-cysteinyl-glycine, γ-Glu-Cys-Gly) is the most abundant intra-cellular dicarboxylic tripeptide with multiple physiological roles. In biological samples, glutathione exists in its reduced form GSH and in two stable oxidized forms, i.e., in its symmetric disulfide form GSSG...
