Product Information

• Name: 2-Fluoro-L-histidine
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-Fluoro-L-histidine is an amino acid analogue of histidine that has been found to inhibit the enzyme activity of protein synthesis. 2-Fluoro-L-histidine has also been shown to be an active analogue for L-histidine, which is a precursor for uric acid and hippuric acid. It has a high affinity for the acidic ph in cells, where it inhibits enzyme activities and inhibits protein synthesis. 2-Fluoro-L-histidine can be used as a fluorescent resonance probe to identify areas of tissue with low levels of histidine.
