Amino Acids (AA)

Applications 2-Methoxy-4-nitro-5-methylaniline is used as a reagent to synthesize 5- and 6-methoxybenzimidazole-1,3,5-triazines, compounds that act as inhibitors of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) that have the potential to treat cancer.

Applications 5-Amino-1-tert-butyl-3-(3-methylbenzyl)-4-cyanopyrazole (cas# 1185162-28-0) is a compound useful in organic synthesis.

Applications L-Alanine tert-butyl ester is a protected form of L-Alanine (A481500). L-Alanine used to make in-vivo measurement of glucose and alanine metabolism in studies of patients with diabetes. L-Alanine is a non-essential amino acid for human development and is one of the 20 amino acids encoded by the genetic code.

Applications N-Fmoc-D-methionine is an N-Fmoc-protected form of D-Methionine (M260550). D-Methionine is an isomer of L-Methionine (M260440), and is known to be a cytoprotectant against Cisplatin (C499500), an anticancer agent. D-Methionine is also used to prevent noise- and drug-induced hearing loss, as well as hair loss (all of which may also be caused by Cisplatin or aminoglycosides).

Applications N-Cbz-L-aspartic acid is an N-Cbz-protected form of L-Aspartic acid (A790024). L-Aspartic acid is a nonessential amino acid that is used to biosynthesize other amino acids within the human body. L-Aspartic acid also increases membrane conductance of mammalian neurons by voltage-dependent means, causing depolarization and nerve impulses that travel to key areas of the central nervous system.
