Description

DL-Norleucine is a polypeptide that is resistant to enzymes that hydrolyze the peptide bonds. It belongs to the group of fatty acids, and has two hydrophobic chains. DL-Norleucine is not metabolized by human enzymes and cannot be broken down by bacterial enzymes. This makes DL-Norleucine an ideal candidate for use as a long-acting antibiotic in humans. The surface methodology used for this compound was FTIR spectroscopy, which showed that DL-Norleucine has a ph optimum of 8.5±0.2 and can form stable crystals at -10 °C to -20 °C. Structural analysis revealed that the molecule consists of two α-helices and one β-sheet with no hydrogen bonds or ionic interactions present in its structure.
