L-Phenylglycine

개요L-Phenylglycine is an amide that belongs to the group of pyridoxal phosphate analogues. It has been shown to be a response element for enzymes and natural compounds in Escherichia coli and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It inhibits aminotransferase activity, dopamine synthesis, and microbial metabolism in these organisms. This compound also has a structural analysis that includes x-ray diffraction data, which can be used to identify its three-dimensional structure.

용도L-(+)-2-Phenylglycine is a derivative of Glycine (G615990), the smallest of all the amino acids, and is also used to treat schizophrenia, stroke, and benign prostatic hyperplasia. L-(+)-2-Phenylglycine is also used as an N-linked side chain of an SMTP (Stachybotrys microspora tripenyl phenols) congener, which was potent in enhancing plasminogen activation in S. microspora.
