:L-Phenylalanine, N-L-tyrosyl-, monohydrate
Description:
L-Phenylalanine, N-L-tyrosyl-, monohydrate is a dipeptide composed of the amino acids phenylalanine and tyrosine, linked by a peptide bond. It is characterized by its role in protein synthesis and its involvement in various metabolic pathways. This compound is typically found in a crystalline form and is soluble in water, which is enhanced by its monohydrate status, indicating the presence of water molecules in its structure. The presence of the phenylalanine and tyrosine residues contributes to its aromatic properties, making it relevant in biochemical applications, particularly in the synthesis of neurotransmitters. L-Phenylalanine is an essential amino acid, meaning it must be obtained through diet, while tyrosine can be synthesized from phenylalanine. This compound may exhibit biological activity, including potential neuroprotective effects, and is of interest in nutritional and pharmaceutical research. As with many peptides, its stability and activity can be influenced by environmental factors such as pH and temperature.
