Description

Z-L-tyrosine amide is a synthetic amino acid with the chemical formula HOOCCH(NH)CH(COOC)CH(NH)COOH. It is the amide of L-tyrosine and pyruvic acid. The compound has been shown to be an inhibitor of histidine decarboxylase and an antagonist of glutamate receptors. Z-L-tyrosine amide also exhibits some anti-inflammatory properties, which may result from its ability to inhibit prostaglandin synthesis. The structure of this molecule consists of a hydrocinnamic acid group, a reactive chloromethyl ketone residue, and a pyrrolidone ring that is activated by the carboxylate group. The active site of this molecule is inactivated by the presence of the chloromethyl ketone residue. Z-L-tyrosine amide is prepared in two steps from L-histidine methyl ester hydrochloride
