Z-Tyr-Ala-OH

Description:

Z-Tyr-Ala-OH, also known as Z-Tyrosyl-Alanine, is a dipeptide derivative characterized by the presence of a protective benzyloxycarbonyl (Z) group on the tyrosine residue. This compound is typically utilized in peptide synthesis and research due to its structural properties and the role of its constituent amino acids. The Z group enhances the stability and solubility of the peptide, making it easier to handle during synthesis. The tyrosine component contributes aromatic properties and potential sites for further functionalization, while alanine provides a simple aliphatic structure that can influence the peptide's overall conformation and biological activity. Z-Tyr-Ala-OH is often studied in the context of drug design and development, particularly in the exploration of peptide-based therapeutics. Its CAS number, 23018-09-9, allows for precise identification in chemical databases and literature. As with many peptides, its properties can be influenced by factors such as pH, temperature, and the presence of solvents, which are critical for applications in biochemical research and pharmaceutical formulations.

Z-Tyr-Ala-OH

CAS: 23018-09-9

Z-Tyr-Ala-OH is an inactivating agent that irreversibly inactivates the zymogens of porcine pancreatic proteinase. It has been shown to be a liquid chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography substrate for the separation of peptides. Z-Tyr-Ala-OH is also catalytic, which means it can react with other substances without being changed. This chemical has been shown to irreversibly inactivate both acidic and basic proteolytic enzymes, such as pepsin and trypsin respectively. Additionally, this substance also reacts with calcium ions to form a thioether bond with cysteine residues on proteins, including those found in bacterial cell walls.
