• Description: Applications N-tert-Boc-D-alanine is an N-Boc-protected form of D-Alanine (A480995). D-Alanine is an amino acid that is commonly found in bacteria, such as Streptococcus faecalis. It is essential for the biosynthesis of peptidoglycan crosslinking sub-units that are used for bacterial cell walls. D-Alanine is also known to cause cytotoxic oxidative stress in brain tumour cells.References Ellsworth, B., et al.: Chem. Biol., 3, 37 (1996); Ferrari, E. et al.: Nat.
