DL-β-Phenylalanine

Description:

DL-β-Phenylalanine is an amino acid that serves as a building block for proteins and is a racemic mixture of the D- and L- forms of β-phenylalanine. It is characterized by its aromatic side chain, which contains a phenyl group, contributing to its hydrophobic properties. This compound is soluble in water and exhibits a slightly acidic nature due to the presence of the carboxyl group. DL-β-Phenylalanine is often used in biochemical research and has applications in the synthesis of peptides and proteins. It plays a role in various metabolic pathways and can influence neurotransmitter synthesis, particularly in the context of phenylalanine metabolism. The substance is also of interest in the study of certain neurological conditions, as it can affect levels of neurotransmitters such as dopamine. Safety data indicates that while it is generally considered safe in moderate amounts, excessive intake may lead to adverse effects, particularly in individuals with metabolic disorders like phenylketonuria (PKU).

DL-3-Amino-3-phenylpropionic acid

CAS: 614-19-7

DL-3-Amino-3-phenylpropionic acid is an amino acid that is synthesized by the reaction of malonic acid and ethyl ester. This compound is a competitive inhibitor of the enzyme pyruvate carboxylase and inhibits this enzyme in the conversion of pyruvic acid to acetyl CoA, which plays a key role in metabolism. DL-3-Amino-3-phenylpropionic acid has been shown to inhibit the growth of bacteria such as Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium and Staphylococcus aureus. The inhibition of pyruvate carboxylase by DL-3-Amino-3-phenylpropionic acid prevents the production of acetaldehyde from pyruvate, which is toxic to cells.
