Description

Boc-Met-Ala-Ome CAS NO 18670-99-0 is a protected tripeptide derivative, specifically N-(tert-Butoxycarbonyl)-L-methionyl-L-alanine methyl ester, serving as a crucial building block in solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS). This compound matters because it provides a strategically protected methionine-alanine dipeptide unit, enabling the efficient and controlled construction of complex peptide sequences for research and development. Pharmaceutical researchers, biotechnology firms, and fine chemical manufacturers need it for the synthesis of therapeutic peptides, biochemical probes, and as a key intermediate in advanced organic synthesis.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key building block for the synthesis of novel therapeutic peptides and peptidomimetics targeting various diseases.
• Biochemical Research: Used in academic and industrial R&D for studying peptide structure-activity relationships (SAR) and enzyme-substrate interactions.
• Solid-Phase Peptide Synthesis (SPPS): Essential precursor for the sequential assembly of longer peptide chains on resin, particularly those containing methionine and alanine residues.
• Combinatorial Chemistry: Employed in libraries for drug discovery to generate diverse peptide-based compounds for high-throughput screening.
• Proteomics & Bioconjugation: Can serve as a linker or spacer molecule in the preparation of peptide-protein conjugates or labeled peptides.
• Fine Chemical Synthesis: Intermediate for the custom synthesis of specialized peptides and amino acid derivatives for various industrial applications.
