Abstract
A model peptide containing N 6 -diethylphospholysine on an internal position, Ac-Ala-Lys(PO 3 Et 2 )-Val-OEt, and two nonphosphorylated peptides, Ac-Ala-Lys-Val-OEt and Ac-Tyr-Lys-Val-OEt, were synthesized in high yields and fully characterized by physicochemical constants, HPLC, and NMR and mass spectra. A rat growth study was conducted to determine bioavailability of lysine in the three peptides. A wheat gluten (20%) basal diet, adequate in all nutrients except lysine (0.26%), was supplemented with 0.1% crystalline lysine. Lysine bioavailability was calculated by comparing growth of rats fed the peptide diets with that of rats fed basal plus 0.1% crystalline lysine diet
