Val-Ala-PAB-OH CAS:1343476-44-7, also known as valine-alanine para-aminobenzoic acid hydroxamate, is a peptide-based compound with potential applications in drug research and development. It is a prodrug of a hydroxamic acid, which is a class of compounds that have shown promising pharmacological activities, particularly as inhibitors of metalloproteases, which are enzymes involved in several disease processes, including cancer and inflammation. The valine-alanine dipeptide in Val-Ala-PAB-OH can be recognized by certain transporters in cells, allowing for efficient uptake and activation of the prodrug. Once inside the cell, the PAB-hydroxamic acid moiety is cleaved off, releasing the active hydroxamic acid compound.
