CAS 72963-27-0
:L-tyrosine-beta,beta-D2
Description:
L-tyrosine-beta,beta-D2, with the CAS number 72963-27-0, is a deuterated form of the amino acid L-tyrosine, which is a non-essential amino acid important for protein synthesis and the production of neurotransmitters. The deuteration indicates that certain hydrogen atoms in the molecule are replaced with deuterium, a stable isotope of hydrogen, which can be useful in various research applications, including metabolic studies and tracer experiments. L-tyrosine itself is characterized by its aromatic side chain, which contributes to its role in synthesizing neurotransmitters such as dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine. This compound is typically white to off-white in appearance and is soluble in water, making it suitable for various biochemical applications. Its deuterated form allows for enhanced tracking in metabolic pathways and can provide insights into the dynamics of amino acid metabolism. As with other amino acids, it plays a crucial role in various physiological processes, including the synthesis of proteins and hormones.

L-4-Hydroxyphenylalanine-3,3-d2
CAS:Formula:HOC6H4CD2CH(NH2)COOHPurity:99 atom % DColor and Shape:White SolidMolecular weight:183.08645L-Tyrosine-d2
CAS:Controlled ProductApplications L-Tyrosine-d2 is deuterium labelled L-Tyrosine (H899975), which is one of the 22 proteinogenic amino acids that are used by cells to synthesize proteins. L-Tyrosine is biologically converted from L-phenylalanine and is in turn is converted to L-DOPA and further converted into the neurotransmitters: dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine.
