H-Arg-Phe-NH2

Description:

H-Arg-Phe-NH2, also known as Arginine-Phenylalanine amide, is a dipeptide composed of the amino acids arginine and phenylalanine linked by a peptide bond. It features an amine group at one end, which is characteristic of peptides and contributes to its solubility in water. The presence of the arginine side chain, which contains a guanidinium group, imparts basic properties, while the phenylalanine side chain, being hydrophobic and aromatic, influences its interactions in biological systems. This compound is often studied in the context of peptide synthesis and biological activity, as it may play roles in signaling pathways or as a building block for larger peptides. Its CAS number, 34388-59-5, allows for precise identification in chemical databases. The stability, reactivity, and potential applications of H-Arg-Phe-NH2 can vary based on environmental conditions such as pH and temperature, making it a subject of interest in both biochemical research and pharmaceutical development.
