Description

Fmoc-N-methyl-L-alanine is a marine sponge fatty acid that has been synthesized and studied using molecular modeling. It is chiral, linear and contains no stereoisomers. Fmoc-N-methyl-L-alanine has been shown to have antibacterial activity against the cyanobacterium and ethyl cinnamate in a biomolecular study. The molecular modeling study of this compound also showed that it binds to the active site of chymotrypsin, an enzyme involved in protein digestion. This means that Fmoc-N-methyl-L-alanine may have potential as a drug for treating peptic ulcers caused by Helicobacter pylori infection.
