Description:H-Lys(acetimidoyl)-OH, also known by its CAS number 53774-63-3, is a derivative of the amino acid lysine, characterized by the presence of an acetimidoyl group attached to the lysine side chain. This modification can influence the compound's reactivity and biological activity. The substance typically exhibits properties associated with amino acids, such as solubility in water due to the presence of polar functional groups. The acetimidoyl modification may enhance its ability to participate in various chemical reactions, including peptide bond formation and interactions with biological macromolecules. Additionally, the compound may play a role in biochemical pathways or serve as a building block in the synthesis of peptides and proteins. Its specific applications can vary, but it is often utilized in research settings, particularly in studies involving protein engineering or drug development. As with many chemical substances, safety data sheets should be consulted for handling and storage guidelines to ensure safe use in laboratory environments.
