Abstract

Structure-function studies suggest that preservation of the N-terminus and secondary structure of glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) is important for biological activity. Therefore, a novel di-substituted analogue of GIP, (Ser(2)-Asp(13))GIP, containing a negatively charged Asp residue in place of an Ala in position 13, seas synthesised and evaluated for in vitro biological activity. Incubation with dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP IV) showed the half-lives of GIP and (Ser(2)-Asp(13))GIP to be 2.3 and >4 h, respectively. Insulin releasing studies in clonal pancreatic BRIN-BD11 cells demonstrated that (Ser(2)-Asp(13))GIP (10(-12) to 10(-7) mol/l) was significantly less potent (60-90%; P
