Product Information

• Name: Z-Ala-Arg-Arg-AMC hydrochloride salt
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Z-Ala-Arg-Arg-AMC hydrochloride salt is a synthetic amino acid that inhibits aminopeptidase activity. It is used to study the enzyme's role in the degradation of muscle proteins, and as a pharmaceutical drug for treating inflammatory bowel disease. The target enzyme is inhibited by binding to its active site, thereby preventing the breakdown of peptides. Z-Ala-Arg-Arg-AMC hydrochloride salt can be used as an inhibitor in the laboratory because it prevents denaturation of protein samples during analysis using electrophoresis or chromatography. This product also has been shown to have inhibitory effects on ileal aminopeptidases and prostate aminopeptidases, which may be due to its ability to bind to these enzymes and block their active sites.
