A synthetic peptide containing two N<sub>ε</sub>-methyl lysines (Ac-K(N<sub>ε</sub>-Me)GYTGYTGK(N<sub>ε</sub>-Me)D-OH) was alkylated with bipyridine (bipy) ligands substituted at the fifth (<b>MP-5</b>) and sixth (<b>MP-6</b>) positions, thereby creating Ac-K(N<sub>ε</sub>-Me, N<sub>ε</sub>-Bipy)GYTGYTGK(N<sub>ε</sub>-Me, N<sub>ε</sub>-Bipy)D-OH. Peptides with 6-position bipyridine did not bind to Fe<sup>2+</sup> and Zn<sup>2+</sup>. Peptides with 5-position bipyridine bound these metals, and in ...[more]
