:

H-Cys(Fm)-OH . HCl

Description:
The chemical substance "H-Cys(Fm)-OH · HCl," with the CAS number 84888-34-6, is a hydrochloride salt of a protected form of cysteine, an amino acid that plays a crucial role in protein synthesis and various metabolic processes. The "Fm" in its name refers to the formyl group, indicating that the cysteine is protected to prevent unwanted reactions during peptide synthesis. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is soluble in water and polar organic solvents, which is advantageous for its use in biochemical applications. The presence of the hydrochloride indicates that it is in a protonated form, enhancing its solubility and stability in solution. Cysteine is known for its thiol (-SH) group, which can participate in redox reactions and form disulfide bonds, contributing to the structural integrity of proteins. This compound is often utilized in peptide synthesis and research involving protein chemistry, particularly in studies related to oxidative stress and cellular signaling pathways.
