The Uses of 4-Azido-L-phenylalanine
4-Azido-L-phenylalanine is an unnatural derivative of L-phenylalanine. It is a nonpolar, essential amino acid that naturally occurs in the human body and is also used to treat patients with depression.
The Uses of 4-Azido-L-phenylalanine
The in-vivo incorporation of clickable unnatural amino acids such as 4-Azido-L-phenylalanine with unique reactivity at a defined postition is used for functionalization of proteins. The azide functionalities in the protein can then be modified with almost any alkyne bearing molecule by Cu(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC). Copper-free alternatives with strained internal alkynes are also available (SPAAC). Some examples enabled with this technique are protein PEGylation, masking with sugars, and the attachment to antibodies.
What are the applications of Application
4-Azido-L-phenylalanine is an unnatural derivative of L-phenylalanine and an effective vibrational reporter of local protein environments.
