Abstract
Evidence is given that tyrosyl-peptides are dimerised by polymorphonuclear leukocytes leading to a new family of compounds. The products formed are homo- and hetero-dimeric peptides with linkage between the tyrosyl residues. This corresponds to a dityrosine structure as determined by analytic and spectroscopic data.Keywords
