N-Acetyl-L-tryptophan Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

solid

Uses

N-Acetyl-L-Tryptophan, is a derivative of L-Tryptophan (T947210), that can be used as competitive inhibitor to identify and characterize tryptophanases. It can also be used as an NK1 tachykinin receptor antagonist, that may help to develop a novel therapeutic intervention for the treatment of reperfusion injury in acute ischemic stroke.

Definition

ChEBI: A N-acetyl-L-amino acid that is the N-acetyl derivative of L-tryptophan.

Biological Activity

N-Acetyl-L-tryptophan (NAT, Ac-Trp-OH) is used a substance P NK1 tachykinin receptor antagonist. N-Acetyl-L-tryptophan is also used as a competitive inhibitor to identify, differentiate and characterized tryptophanase(s).

Safety Profile

Moderately toxic by some routes. An experimental teratogen. Other experimental reproductive effects. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NOX,.
