Product Description
O-(tert-Butyl)-N-Fmoc-L-allothreonine is a threonine analogue.
O-(tert-Butyl)-N-Fmoc-L-allothreonine (CAS 201481-37-0), also known as Fmoc-L-allothreonine tert-butyl ether, is a threonine derivative featuring an Fmoc protecting group on the amino functionality and a tert-butyl (tBu) protecting group on the hydroxyl side chain of allothreonine. Allothreonine is a diastereomer of threonine, differing in the configuration at the β-carbon. The compound is an allothreonine analogue used as a building block in Fmoc-based solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS). The orthogonal Fmoc and tert-butyl protecting groups allow for selective deprotection under different conditions. The product is for research use only and not for human therapeutic applications.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
As an amino acid derivative, O-(tert-Butyl)-N-Fmoc-L-allothreonine does not have a defined primary drug target in the context of therapeutic development. However, as a protected allothreonine analogue, it may be used in research to study peptide conformation, receptor binding, and enzyme-substrate interactions. Allothreonine is a non-proteinogenic amino acid that is a diastereomer of threonine, and its incorporation into peptides can introduce conformational constraints and alter biological activity. The Fmoc and tert-butyl protecting groups allow for selective deprotection under different conditions, which is a key feature in Fmoc-based SPPS. The compound can serve as a building block for synthesizing allothreonine-containing peptides.
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 studies on amino acid derivatives, including this allothreonine analogue, have demonstrated their capacity to influence the release of anabolic hormones, modulate fuel availability for cellular activity, enhance mental performance under stress-related conditions, and prevent exercise-induced muscle damage. As an allothreonine derivative, this compound may be used in cell-based assays to investigate amino acid transport mechanisms, peptide stability, and the effects of stereochemical variation on peptide biological activity. The compound can also be utilized in studies examining the role of threonine diastereomers in protein folding and enzyme recognition.
ln Vivo
In vivo studies on amino acid derivatives have shown that 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. As a protected allothreonine derivative, this compound may be administered in animal studies to evaluate the effects of allothreonine-containing peptides on biological systems. However, specific in vivo pharmacological data for this exact compound remains limited, as it is primarily supplied as a research chemical for peptide synthesis rather than as a therapeutic agent. The Fmoc and tert-butyl groups would likely be cleaved in vivo to release allothreonine.
Enzyme Assay
Non-cell-based enzyme or receptor binding assays for this compound typically involve studies with purified enzymes or receptors to evaluate the effects of allothreonine incorporation and side chain protection on binding affinity and enzymatic activity. For peptide synthesis applications, the compound is evaluated in coupling reactions using standard peptide synthesis chemistry to assess reactivity and coupling efficiency. The Fmoc protecting group allows for selective deprotection under mild basic conditions (e.g., piperidine), while the tert-butyl group can be removed under acidic conditions.
Cell Assay
Cell-based assays for this allothreonine derivative typically utilize mammalian cell lines to evaluate compound uptake, cytotoxicity, and effects on cellular metabolism. Standard protocols involve culturing cells in appropriate media at 37°C in 5% CO₂, followed by treatment with varying concentrations of the compound (typically 0.1-100 μM) for 24-72 hours. Cell viability is assessed using MTT or CCK-8 assays. For peptide synthesis applications, the compound is used as a building block in Fmoc-based SPPS protocols. The Fmoc group is removed with piperidine after coupling to allow for chain elongation, while the tert-butyl group can be removed during side chain deprotection.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for amino acid derivatives typically involve administration via oral gavage, intraperitoneal injection, or intravenous injection in rodent models (mice or rats). Standard protocols include dosing at ranges of 10-100 mg/kg body weight, with observations over 1-14 days depending on the study objectives. For studies evaluating the effects of allothreonine-containing peptides, animals may be administered peptide formulations and monitored for therapeutic efficacy or pharmacokinetics. Pharmacodynamic assessments may include blood sampling for peptide analysis, tissue collection for histopathological examination, and monitoring of body weight and general health parameters. All animal studies must comply with institutional ethical guidelines.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties for this Fmoc-protected allothreonine derivative can be inferred from structurally related compounds. As a medium-sized molecule, it is expected to have moderate bioavailability. The Fmoc and tert-butyl protecting groups are likely to be cleaved in vivo to release the active allothreonine. The compound shows moderate solubility in organic solvents such as DMSO and can be formulated for in vitro studies. For in vivo administration, formulations using suitable co-solvent systems may be employed. The compound should be stored as powder at -20°C for long-term preservation. Definitive PK parameters such as half-life, Cmax, and AUC require formal studies.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicological data for this specific compound are limited as it is supplied for research use only and not intended for human therapeutic applications. Amino acid derivatives in general are considered to have low inherent toxicity based on their natural amino acid origins. However, as with all research chemicals, appropriate safety precautions should be observed during handling, including the use of personal protective equipment and work in well-ventilated areas. The compound may cause skin and eye irritation upon contact. Acute toxicity studies in animal models would be required to establish LD₅₀ values and no-observed-adverse-effect levels (NOAEL). For in vitro cytotoxicity assessment, the compound can be tested in mammalian cell lines using standard MTT or LDH release assays.
