Cyclic Dipeptides Formation From Linear Dipeptides Under Potentially Prebiotic Earth Conditions
Cyclic dipeptides (DKPs) are peptide precursors and chiral catalysts in the prebiotic process. This study reports proline-containing DKPs that were spontaneously obtained from linear dipeptides under an aqueous solution. Significantly, the yields of DKPs were affected by the sequence of linear dipep...
