2-Acetylaminopropionic acid Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

2-Acetylaminopropionic acid is White Cyrstalline Solid

Uses

2-Acetylaminopropionic acid is used as a biomarker for prostate cancer.

Uses

N-Acetyl-L-alanine has been used to study its effect on cytosolic and mitochondrial reduction-oxidation sensitive green fluorescent protein (roGFP).

Definition

ChEBI: An N-acetyl-L-amino acid that is L-alanine in which one of the hydrogens attached to the nitrogen is replaced by an acetyl group.
