N-Fmoc-D-valine, 98%

Description

It is potentially useful for proteomics studies and solid phase peptide synthesis techniques. Valine is one of the simplest amino acids - an isopropyl group as the side chain. This smaller side chain confers a fairly high degree of flexibility when incorporated into a polypeptide chain. The Fmoc group is typically removed with a base such as pyridine - an orthogonal de-protection strategy to the acid labilie Boc group.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.

Solubility
Solubility in methanol (almost transparency). Slightly soluble in water.

Notes
Store away from heat and oxidizing agents. Keep the container tightly closed and place it in a cool, dry and well ventilated condition. Keep it refrigerated.
