Descrição

4-Azido-L-phenylalanine is a model system that has been used for the study of biological processes. It is an analog of L-phenylalanine and can be synthesized from 4-amino-3,5-dichlorobenzonitrile. This chemical is a structural analogue of the natural amino acid phenylalanine and has been used in the study of protein folding and peptide hormone synthesis. 4AAP has also been used to produce monoclonal antibodies and histones proteins, as well as drugs for the treatment of cancer. The irreversible inhibition of enzymes by 4AAP is useful in chemical biology, such as in the production of peptides or amino acids.
