Product Description
Fmoc-D-Nle-OH is a leucine analogue.
Fmoc-D-Nle-OH is an Fmoc-protected derivative of the non-canonical D-amino acid D-norleucine. It serves as a fundamental building block for the introduction of D-norleucine residues during Fmoc-based solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS). The compound features the 9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc) Nα-protecting group, which enables stepwise elongation under mild basic deprotection conditions, and a free carboxyl group for activation and coupling. As a D-amino acid derivative, it provides access to sequences with altered stereochemistry.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Fmoc-D-Nle-OH is classified as an amino acid derivative targeting peptide synthesis applications. The compound itself does not have a specific biological receptor target; rather, it is a synthetic building block used in the preparation of peptides with D-amino acid residues. D-amino acid incorporation confers proteolytic resistance to peptides, making them useful in the design of antimicrobial peptides and long-acting peptide therapeutics. The target is the growing peptide chain during SPPS.
ln Vitro
Commercial ergot supplements have been made from amino acids and their derivatives. They affect the release of anabolic hormones, the availability of fuel for activity, the ability to think clearly under pressure, and the prevention of muscular damage brought on by exertion. They are regarded as advantageous synergistic food ingredients [1].
In vitro activity of Fmoc-D-Nle-OH is primarily related to its role as a peptide synthesis reagent. Amino acids and amino acid derivatives like Fmoc-D-Nle-OH have been commercially used as ergogenic supplements. They influence the secretion of anabolic hormones, supply of fuel during exercise, mental performance during stress-related tasks, and prevention of exercise-induced muscle damage. As a protected amino acid, its in vitro utility lies in solid-phase peptide synthesis rather than direct biological activity.
ln Vivo
There is no specific in vivo activity data available for Fmoc-D-Nle-OH. As a protected amino acid derivative used exclusively in research, it is not administered in vivo in its intact form. The D-norleucine residues introduced into peptides via this building block can confer metabolic stability and proteolytic resistance when the resulting peptides are studied in vivo. Peptides containing D-amino acids are often used to investigate stereochemical effects on biological activity and pharmacokinetics.
Enzyme Assay
Typical in vitro enzyme/receptor binding protocols for Fmoc-amino acids involve assessing coupling efficiency in peptide synthesis. The compound is activated using coupling reagents such as HATU, HBTU, or DIC in the presence of a base like DIPEA in DMF. The activated ester is then reacted with a resin-bound peptide. For quality control, HPLC and LC-MS are used to monitor coupling completion. Enantiomeric purity is verified by chiral HPLC (≥99.5% ee). Standard binding assays are not applicable as this is a synthetic building block.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based protocols for Fmoc-D-Nle-OH are not applicable as the compound is not used in cell culture. However, the D-norleucine-containing peptides synthesized using this building block can be tested in cellular assays. For such studies, peptides are dissolved in DMSO or appropriate buffers, diluted to desired concentrations, and added to cell cultures. Typical assays include cell viability (MTT), proliferation, and apoptosis measurements. Cells are incubated for 24-72 hours with peptide treatments.
Animal Protocol
Animal studies involving Fmoc-D-Nle-OH are not conducted with the protected amino acid itself. Instead, the D-norleucine-containing peptides synthesized using this building block may be evaluated in vivo. Standard protocols involve administration of the peptide via oral gavage, intravenous, or intraperitoneal injection in appropriate animal models. Dosing regimens, blood sampling, and tissue collection are performed according to specific study designs. Pharmacodynamic and efficacy endpoints are measured depending on the therapeutic area of interest.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic data for Fmoc-D-Nle-OH as a standalone compound is not applicable as it is a research building block, not a drug. The compound has a molecular weight of 353.4 g/mol and formula C₂₁H₂₃NO₄. It is soluble in DMF for peptide synthesis applications. The Fmoc protecting group is removed under basic conditions (typically 20% piperidine in DMF) during SPPS. The resulting peptide products containing D-norleucine may exhibit altered pharmacokinetics due to increased proteolytic stability.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicological data for Fmoc-D-Nle-OH is limited as it is a research chemical. Standard safety precautions for handling Fmoc-protected amino acids should be observed. The compound is not intended for human therapeutic use. The Fmoc group is base-labile and may be removed under physiological conditions. Acute toxicity is expected to be low based on the compound's chemical class. Proper personal protective equipment should be used when handling. Store at -20°C for long-term stability.
