Z-L-MeAla-OH

Z-L-MeAla-OH contains an L-configured amino acid backbone bearing a methyl-substituted alanine side chain (MeAla), classifying it as a protected amino acid derivative with a Z (benzyloxycarbonyl, Cbz) group on the amino functionality. The molecule presents a carbamate-protected α-amino group and a free carboxylic acid (-COOH), with the benzyloxycarbonyl moiety providing chemoselective control by suppressing unprotected amine reactivity during peptide-coupling steps. Z-L-MeAla-OH is used as a building block for stepwise peptide synthesis and for preparing methylated alanine-containing peptide analogues or amino acid derivatives in structural and chemical biology studies.

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