General description

Boc-L-cysteine (Boc-Cys-OH) is a high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) grade chromatographic solvent.

Application

Boc-L-cysteine (Boc-Cys-OH) can may be used as a chromatographic solvent, in an experimental study done to study the biosynthesis of S-(3-hexan-1-ol)-glutathione (3MH-S-glut) and S-(3-hexan-l-ol)-L-cysteine (3MH-S-cys), which act as flavour precursors in wines, in Vitis vinifera grapes exposed to various environmental stress.

D-serine is a physiologic coagonist of NMDA receptors (NMDARs) required for synaptic plasticity, but mechanisms that terminate D-serine signaling are unclear. In particular, the identity of unidirectional plasma membrane transporters that mediate D-serine reuptake has remained elusive. We report that

Photodynamic therapy is a clinically approved treatment approach for cancer. However, it has limited applications owing to poor water solubility and the short wavelength absorption of the photosensitizer (PS). We selected a near-infrared photosensitizer, SiNC, and encapsulated into a gold

d-Aspartate oxidase (DDO) is a flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD)-containing flavoprotein that stereospecifically acts on acidic d-amino acids (i.e., free d-aspartate and d-glutamate). Mammalian DDO, which exhibits higher activity toward d-aspartate than d-glutamate, is presumed to regulate levels of d-aspartate in
