N2-Acetyl-D-arginine

Description:

N2-Acetyl-D-arginine, with the CAS number 2389-86-8, is a derivative of the amino acid arginine, characterized by the presence of an acetyl group attached to the nitrogen atom of the guanidinium side chain. This modification enhances its solubility and stability compared to its parent compound. The substance is typically a white to off-white crystalline powder and is soluble in water and various organic solvents. N2-Acetyl-D-arginine is often used in biochemical research, particularly in studies related to protein synthesis, enzyme activity, and cellular signaling pathways. Its acetylation can influence the biological activity of arginine, making it a valuable compound in pharmacological and therapeutic applications. Additionally, it may play a role in modulating nitric oxide production, which is crucial for various physiological processes. As with many amino acid derivatives, it is important to handle N2-Acetyl-D-arginine with care, following appropriate safety protocols in laboratory settings.

(2R)-2-Acetamido-5-(Diaminomethylideneazaniumyl)Pentanoate

CAS: 2389-86-8

(2R)-2-Acetamido-5-(Diaminomethylideneazaniumyl)Pentanoate is an insoluble, acylase inhibitor. It is obtained from the reaction of histidine with acetaldehyde and ammonia in refluxed ethanol. This product has two optical isomers, one being (2R)-2-acetamido-5-(diaminomethylideneazaniumyl)pentanoic acid and the other being (2S)-2-acetamido-5-(diaminomethylideneazaniumyl)pentanoic acid. The former is more active than the latter against acetylesterase. The product also inhibits lysine decarboxylase and d-alanine racemase to a lesser extent. The enzyme activity of this compound can be increased by adding l-amino acid or dl-alanine.
