:Alanylalanine
Description:
Alanylalanine, also known as L-Alanyl-L-alanine, is a dipeptide composed of two alanine amino acids linked by a peptide bond. It is a non-polar, hydrophobic molecule due to the presence of the aliphatic side chains of alanine. This compound is typically white to off-white in appearance and is soluble in water, reflecting the properties of many amino acids and peptides. Alanylalanine plays a role in various biological processes, including protein synthesis and metabolism. It can be utilized in research and nutritional applications, particularly in studies related to peptide synthesis and amino acid metabolism. The CAS number 59247-16-4 uniquely identifies this compound in chemical databases, facilitating its recognition in scientific literature and regulatory contexts. As with many peptides, its stability can be influenced by environmental factors such as pH and temperature, and it may undergo hydrolysis under certain conditions. Overall, Alanylalanine serves as an important model compound for understanding peptide behavior and interactions in biological systems.
