Description

N-acetylphenylalanine ethyl ester (AcPheOEt) is a synthetic derivative of the amino acid phenylalanine. It is commonly used as a model compound in studies of peptide and protein chemistry, as it is relatively simple to synthesize and purify. AcPheOEt is a valuable tool for investigating enzyme kinetics, peptide synthesis, and the interactions of peptides with other molecules. For example, AcPheOEt has been used as a substrate for the enzyme chymotrypsin, which cleaves peptide bonds. Research on AcPheOEt has also explored its potential applications in drug delivery, as it can be modified to enhance its bioavailability and target specific cells or tissues. The compound has also been used in the development of new materials, such as polymers and hydrogels, due to its ability to form self-assembling structures. The simplicity of its structure and its ability to be modified make it a versatile tool in a variety of research fields.'
