Application

H-Lys(Z)-OH serves as a reactant for the synthesis of various peptides such as boc-Glu(OBzl)-Lys(Z)-OH and tert-butyl-6-(((benzyloxy)carbonyl)amino)-2-bromohexanoate. Additionally, it is used in the Fuchs-Farthing method to synthesize lysine NCA, which is a block copolymer.

General description

H-Lys(Z)-OH also known as N6-carbobenzyloxy-L-lysine, commonly used as a reagent in the synthesis of peptides.

Biotransformations were developed to oxidize N epsilon-carbobenzoxy(CBZ)-L-lysine and to reduce the product keto acid to L-CBZ-oxylysine. Lysyl oxidase (L-lysine: O2 oxidoreductase, EC 1.4.3.14) from Trichoderma viride was relatively specific for L-lysine and had very low activity with N epsilon-substituted derivatives.

Poly(epsilon-CBZ-L-lysine) can be mixed with biodegradable polymers such as poly(D,L-lactic-co-glycolic acid) or poly(L-lactic acid) and formed into films, foams, or microspheres. Surface amino groups may then be deprotected with acid or lithium/liquid ammonia. The amino groups serve as a method
