dl-homophenylalanine

Description:
dl-Homophenylalanine, with the CAS number 1012-05-1, is an amino acid derivative that is structurally related to phenylalanine. It features a side chain that is one carbon longer than that of phenylalanine, which contributes to its unique properties. This compound exists as a racemic mixture of its two enantiomers, which means it contains equal amounts of both the D- and L- forms. dl-Homophenylalanine is typically a white crystalline solid and is soluble in water, making it suitable for various biochemical applications. It is often used in peptide synthesis and as a building block in the development of pharmaceuticals and research in protein engineering. Additionally, it can serve as a substrate in enzymatic reactions and is of interest in studies related to metabolic pathways. Its structural similarity to phenylalanine allows it to participate in similar biochemical processes, but its longer side chain can influence its interactions and functions in biological systems.
