Scheme 1

Succinimide-mediated, nonenzymatic reactions from l-Asp and l-Asn residues (Asu: aminosuccinyl residue). The succinimide formation from l-Asn is irreversible; the other reactions are reversible. At around pH 7, the succinimide racemization is expected to occur through an enol intermediate.
