Product Information
Name:Z-L-Alanine
Brand:Biosynth
Description:Z-L-Alanine is a cytosolic enzyme inhibitor that inhibits the activity of enzymes involved in protein catalysis. This inhibition is stereoselective, with the L-enantiomer having the stronger inhibitory effect. Z-L-Alanine has been shown to be an effective inhibitor of proteolytic enzymes and has been used as an additive in buffers to prevent enzymatic degradation. Molecular modeling studies have demonstrated that Z-L-Alanine can bind to the active site of these enzymes and inhibit their activity by binding to the catalytic triad of serine, aspartate, and histidine residues. The molecular structure of Z-L-Alanine resembles that of a natural substrate for these enzymes, which may account for its effectiveness in inhibiting them. FTIR spectroscopy has confirmed the presence of Z-L-alanine in a sample obtained from a bacterial culture. Liquid chromatography has shown that this amino acid is present at high levels in various
