Structure-activity investigations of product-like dipeptide analogues lacking the C-terminal carbonyl function resulted in potent and selective dipeptidyl peptidase II (DPP II) inhibitors. Dab-Pip has an IC(50)=0.13 microM for DPP II and a 7600-fold selectivity with respect to DPP IV. This compound will be highly valuable for the investigation of the biochemical function of DPP II.
