Cyclo(Pro-Leu) is a cyclic dipeptide, also known as diketopiperazine, composed of the amino acids proline (Pro) and leucine (Leu). These cyclic dipeptides are small molecules formed through the cyclization of two amino acids, and they exhibit various biological activities, including antimicrobial, anticancer, and anti-inflammatory properties. Cyclo(Pro-Leu) is of interest in pharmaceutical and biochemical research due to its stability and potential therapeutic applications. Additionally, diketopiperazines are naturally occurring compounds found in many organisms and are studied for their role in microbial communication (quorum sensing) and secondary metabolism.
