Application: |
Peptide Synthesis: BOC-N-Me-D-Phe-OH serves as a building block in solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) or solution-phase peptide synthesis. It can be incorporated into peptide chains as a protected amino acid, allowing the creation of peptides with specific sequences. Peptides synthesized using BOC-N-Me-D-Phe-OH may have applications in drug development, biochemical research, and therapeutic interventions. Drug Development: Peptides containing D-amino acids, like D-phenylalanine, synthesized using BOC-N-Me-D-Phe-OH, may possess unique pharmacological properties compared to their L-amino acid counterparts. They may exhibit increased proteolytic stability, enhanced cell permeability, or altered receptor selectivity. Therefore, they are of interest in drug development efforts targeting various diseases such as cancer, infections, and neurological disorders. Biological Research: BOC-N-Me-D-Phe-OH can be used in biochemical and biological studies to investigate protein structure and function. Incorporating D-amino acids into peptides or proteins can help elucidate their roles in biological processes, protein-protein interactions, and enzyme kinetics. Additionally, peptides containing D-amino acids may serve as probes for studying biological systems and pathways. |
