Product Description
N-Acetyl-D-valine is a valine analogue.
N-Acetyl-D-valine (CAS 17916-88-0) is an N-acetylated derivative of the non-proteinogenic D-enantiomer of valine. Its molecular formula is C7H13NO3 with a molecular weight of 159.18 g/mol. It appears as a white to almost white powder or crystal. The compound features an acetyl group attached to the nitrogen of the valine side chain. It is a metabolite found or produced in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and is used as a building block in peptide synthesis to incorporate acetylated D-valine residues.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
This compound does not have a specific biological target; it functions as a chemical building block for peptide synthesis and as a research tool. As a D-valine derivative, it is used to introduce acetylated D-valine residues into peptides, which can alter the peptide's conformation and interactions. It is valuable in studies of peptide folding, stability, and function, as well as in investigating the role of acetylation in protein function and cellular processes. Acetyl-D-valine may also be used in the treatment of bacterial infections caused by Stenotrophomonas maltophilia.
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].
This compound is not a therapeutic agent and does not have established in vitro biological activity in a pharmacological sense. Its value lies in its chemical utility as a protected amino acid intermediate and research tool. Amino acid derivatives have been commercially used as ergogenic supplements affecting the release of anabolic hormones, the availability of fuel for activity, and the prevention of muscular damage brought on by exertion. However, N-Acetyl-D-valine itself is primarily used in research applications rather than as a directly active pharmacological agent.
ln Vivo
This compound is not administered in vivo as a therapeutic agent. It is a research chemical utilized as a building block in peptide synthesis and as a tool for studying protein function. The final peptide product containing acetylated D-valine residues, not this acetylated amino acid intermediate, would be the subject of in vivo pharmacological testing for therapeutic efficacy and safety. As a metabolite found in yeast, it may be studied in metabolic research, but it is not administered as a therapeutic agent.
Enzyme Assay
Non-cellular enzyme/receptor binding assays are not applicable to N-Acetyl-D-valine as it is not a drug. Its use is in organic synthesis and biochemical research. It can be used as a building block in peptide synthesis to incorporate acetylated D-valine residues. It is valuable in studies of peptide folding, stability, and function, as well as in investigating the role of acetylation in protein function and cellular processes. It may also be used in enzyme assays to study valine metabolism and acetylation pathways.
Cell Assay
This compound is not used in cell-based assays as a therapeutic agent. Its role is as a research chemical and building block for peptide synthesis. It should be stored at room temperature in a cool and dark place below 15°C. It is a solid at 20°C. Purity is typically ≥95.0% by HPLC and ≥98.0% by neutralization titration. It is soluble in common organic solvents. The product is for research purposes only and is not intended for human or veterinary use.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal experiments do not involve N-Acetyl-D-valine as a test article. It is a chemical intermediate used in the synthesis of peptide-based drug candidates. If used to synthesize a therapeutic peptide, that final product would be subjected to animal testing. The acetylated valine itself is not administered to animals as a therapeutic agent. It may be studied in animal models as part of metabolic research or to investigate the role of acetylation in protein function, but it is not a therapeutic agent itself.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties are not applicable to N-Acetyl-D-valine as it is not a drug. It is a small molecule (MW 159.18 g/mol) with the formula C7H13NO3. Its specific rotation [α]20/D is -11.0 to -14.0 degrees (c=1). These properties are relevant for chemical handling and storage rather than for systemic exposure studies. As a metabolite found in yeast, it may be part of metabolic pathways, but pharmacokinetic parameters are not typically studied for this compound.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
The toxicity of N-Acetyl-D-valine is not extensively documented, as it is a research chemical not intended for human or veterinary use. It should be handled with standard laboratory precautions, including the use of appropriate personal protective equipment and working in a well-ventilated area. The compound is a solid at room temperature and should be stored in a cool, dark place below 15°C. It is not intended for diagnostic, therapeutic, or other medical applications.

Additional Infomation
N-acetyl-D-valine is a metabolite found or produced in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
This compound is an N-acetylated derivative of D-valine used as a building block in peptide synthesis. Acetylation is a common post-translational modification that can affect protein function, stability, and interactions. The D-enantiomer provides resistance to proteolytic degradation, making it valuable for studying peptide stability and for developing peptide-based therapeutics. It is a metabolite found in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It is not a pharmaceutical and has no clinical trials or approved therapeutic status.

  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
