additional information
-
neither L-histidine nor Nalpha-gamma-L-glutamylhistamine itself have any inhibitory effect on Nalpha-gamma-L-glutamylhistamine formation. In addition, the dipeptides carnosine, homocarnosine, and anserine also have little effect on histamine utilization. Taurine, putrescine, L-tyrosine and L-tryptophan display no inhibitory activity
