CAS 10521-49-0: gly-D-val
Description:Gly-D-Val, also known as Glycine-D-Valine, is a dipeptide composed of the amino acids glycine and D-valine. It is characterized by its specific sequence, where glycine, the simplest amino acid, is linked to D-valine, the D-enantiomer of valine. This compound is typically used in biochemical research and studies related to peptide synthesis and protein structure. Gly-D-Val may exhibit unique properties due to the presence of the D-amino acid, which can influence its biological activity and stability compared to its L-counterpart. The presence of the D-amino acid can also affect the peptide's interaction with enzymes and receptors, making it a subject of interest in pharmacology and medicinal chemistry. Additionally, like many peptides, Gly-D-Val may have implications in the study of metabolic pathways and could potentially serve as a model for understanding peptide behavior in biological systems. Its solubility, stability, and reactivity can vary based on environmental conditions such as pH and temperature.
