Glutaminase-catalyzed γ-glutamylation to produce CCK secretion-stimulatory γ-[Glu]n-Trp peptides superior to tryptophan

This study follows recent attempts to discover and improve the effectiveness of dietary peptides as stimulators of cholecystokinin (CCK) secretion. This study is the first report about the effect of γ-[Glu](n=1,2,3,4)-Trp, produced via γ-glutamylation by glutaminase, on CCK release and Ca2+-sensing...
