5-Methoxy-DL-tryptophan

Description:

5-Methoxy-DL-tryptophan is an analog of the amino acid tryptophan, characterized by the presence of a methoxy group at the 5-position of the indole ring. This compound is a non-proteinogenic amino acid and is often studied for its potential biological activities, including its role in neurotransmitter synthesis and modulation of serotonin pathways. It is known to exhibit both agonistic and antagonistic properties at various receptors, which may influence mood and behavior. The compound is soluble in polar solvents, reflecting its structural characteristics, and is typically used in biochemical research to explore its effects on cellular processes. Additionally, 5-Methoxy-DL-tryptophan may serve as a precursor in the synthesis of other bioactive molecules. Safety and handling precautions should be observed, as with any chemical substance, due to potential biological effects. Overall, this compound is of interest in pharmacological and neurobiological studies, contributing to the understanding of tryptophan metabolism and its implications in health and disease.

5-Methoxy-DL-tryptophan

CAS: 28052-84-8

5-Methoxy-DL-tryptophan is a molecule that has been shown to inhibit the formation of osteoclasts by binding to tryptophan. This molecule has also been used in magnetic resonance spectroscopy and fluorescence experiments to study the binding of 5-methoxy-DL-tryptophan with various other molecules. It is an inhibitor of tryptophan decarboxylase, an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of tryptophan into serotonin, which can be used as a neurotransmitter. The inhibition of this enzyme leads to decreased serotonin levels and reduced production of inflammatory cytokines. This molecule has been shown to have an inhibitory effect on the enzymatic reaction between proline and oxaloacetate, leading to the production of alpha ketoglutarate. This molecule has also been shown to have a binding affinity with lung fibroblasts in vitro and inhibits their growth, suggesting that it may be useful for treating lung
