Fmoc-D-Tyr(tBu)-OH

Описание

Fmoc-D-Tyr(tBu)-OH is a precursor for the synthesis of thyroxine, dopa and adrenaline in medicine. It is directly involved in the synthesis of neurotransmitters such as dopamine, norepinephrine and epinephrine, and in the control of neurotransmitter levels, and is involved in the synthesis of hormones of thyroid, pituitary and other glands. In the feed industry, Fmoc-D-Tyr(tBu)-OH can be used as a feed additive in the feed of chicks. On the one hand, it minimizes the amount of phenylalanine converted to tyrosine to maintain the balance of amino acids in the growth of livestock and poultry. On the other hand, it can avoid chicks and piglets to lose weight due to insufficient tyrosine in the body and the destruction of thyroid and adrenal hormones.

Использование

N-Fmoc-O-tert-butyl-D-tyrosine is potentially useful for proteomics studies and solid phase peptide synthesis techniques.

Определение

Fmoc-D-Tyr(tBu)-OH (5mM) forms sphere-like assemblies at room temperature which may be converted to fibers-like structure on heating at 70 0C. In the case of Fmoc-D-Tyr(tBu)-OH, it formed a destructive aggregate at lower concentration instated of fibrils structure.
