DL-PHENYLALANINE-2-D1

Description:
DL-Phenylalanine-2-D1, with the CAS number 14246-24-3, is a deuterated form of the amino acid phenylalanine, which is an essential amino acid important for protein synthesis and the production of neurotransmitters. This compound features a deuterium atom, a stable isotope of hydrogen, replacing one of the hydrogen atoms in the phenylalanine structure, which can be useful in various research applications, particularly in studies involving metabolic pathways and tracer studies. DL-Phenylalanine exists in two enantiomeric forms: D-phenylalanine and L-phenylalanine, with the "DL" designation indicating a racemic mixture of both. The presence of deuterium can enhance the stability and solubility of the compound in certain solvents, making it valuable in biochemical research. Its characteristics include being a white crystalline solid, soluble in water, and exhibiting typical amino acid behavior in biochemical reactions. As with many amino acids, it plays a role in the synthesis of proteins and can influence various physiological processes in living organisms.
