Z-dehydro-Ala-OH

Z-dehydro-Ala-OH is a dehydroalanine-derived amino acid bearing the alanine side chain and an alkene within the backbone (dehydroalanine motif) that distinguishes it from the corresponding saturated alanine. The molecule contains a free carboxylic acid and an amino group, and the "Z" designation indicates a defined geometric configuration about the backbone C=C bond, while the unsaturation provides a site for chemoselective reactivity relative to saturated amino acids. Z-dehydro-Ala-OH is used in peptide chemistry and chemical biology as a reactive amino acid building block for preparing dehydro-containing peptides and for generating electrophilic or conjugation-capable intermediates in structure-activity and labeling studies.

Designed for biological research and industrial applications, not intended for individual clinical or medical purposes.
