| Targets |
As a synthetic intermediate, Fmoc-HoCys(ACM)-OH has no specific biological target. Its role is to provide homocysteine residues in peptide chains with the thiol group protected. The Fmoc protecting group enables standard Fmoc solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) workflows. The Acm group provides protection for the thiol during peptide synthesis, preventing unwanted oxidation or side reactions. The compound does not interact with enzymes or receptors in pharmacological assays. Its "target" is the peptide coupling reaction, where it acts as a protected amino acid donor.

| ln Vitro |
Compound 1 (Fmoc-HoCys(ACM)-OH) can be employed in solid phase peptide synthesis by the application of a Fmoc-based approach[1].
The in vitro activity of Fmoc-HoCys(ACM)-OH is measured by coupling efficiency in solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS). Typically, it is coupled to resin-bound amine using standard Fmoc-SPPS conditions: deprotection of the resin-bound Fmoc group with 20% piperidine in DMF, followed by coupling with Fmoc-HoCys(ACM)-OH (typically 3-5 equivalents) using coupling reagents such as HATU, HBTU, or DIC with HOBt, and DIEA as base. Coupling efficiency is monitored by the Kaiser test or by quantitative HPLC. Purity is typically ≥98%. No inherent biological activity is observed as the compound is a protected amino acid derivative. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo activity is not applicable for Fmoc-HoCys(ACM)-OH. The compound is not used in animals and is a research chemical for laboratory synthesis only.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
The in vitro enzyme/receptor binding (non-cellular) experimental workflow for Fmoc-HoCys(ACM)-OH involves standard Fmoc solid-phase peptide synthesis procedures. Standard SPPS cycle: deprotect Fmoc with 20% piperidine in DMF (typically 2 × 5-10 minutes), wash with DMF, couple Fmoc-HoCys(ACM)-OH (3 equiv.) with HATU (2.9 equiv.) and DIEA (6 equiv.) for 1-2 hours, wash, repeat. After complete assembly of the peptide sequence, the peptide is cleaved from the resin and deprotected using a cleavage cocktail containing TFA, TIS, and water (typically 95:2.5:2.5) for 2-4 hours. The compound's SMILES is O=C(O)[C@@H](NC(OCC1C2=C(C3=C1C=CC=C3)C=CC=C2)=O)CCSCNC(C)=O.

Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.83 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.83 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
