L-Azidohomoalanine HCl salt CAS:120042-14-0 is a valuable chemical tool that has significant applications in pharmaceutical research and development. This compound is a bioorthogonal amino acid analog that contains an azide functional group in place of the amino group in the side chain of homoserine.
In pharmaceutical research, L-Azidohomoalanine HCl salt is commonly used to study the synthesis, metabolism, and transport of proteins in cells. Specifically, it can be incorporated into newly synthesized proteins during translation, allowing for their identification and isolation using click chemistry or other bioorthogonal labeling techniques.
Moreover, L-Azidohomoalanine HCl salt can also be used to study the turnover rates of proteins in cells and tissues, as well as the effects of drugs or other perturbations on protein synthesis and degradation.
