| Targets |
This compound does not have a specific biological target; it functions as a chemical building block for peptide synthesis. As a threonine derivative, it is used to introduce O-benzyl-L-threonine residues into peptides. The Z group protects the α-amino group and can be removed by hydrogenolysis (H2/Pd-C), while the benzyl ether protects the side-chain hydroxyl and can also be removed by hydrogenolysis or strong acid. The benzyl protecting group attached to the hydroxyl side chain of L-threonine enhances its stability during stepwise peptide assembly.

| 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 biological agent and does not exhibit direct in vitro biological activity in a pharmacological sense. Its value lies in its chemical utility as a protected amino acid intermediate. 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, Z-Thr(Bzl)-OH itself is primarily used as a research tool in peptide synthesis 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. The final deprotected peptide product, not this protected intermediate, would be the subject of in vivo pharmacological testing for therapeutic efficacy and safety. The protected threonine derivative itself is never administered to animals as a test compound. It is used in Z/Bzl-based synthetic strategies for peptide assembly.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Non-cellular enzyme/receptor binding assays are not applicable to Z-Thr(Bzl)-OH as it is not biologically active. Its use is in organic synthesis and peptide chemistry. A typical protocol involves its use as a building block in peptide synthesis, where the Z group can be selectively removed by catalytic hydrogenolysis (H2/Pd-C) to reveal the free amino group for coupling with the next amino acid, and the benzyl ether can be removed by hydrogenolysis or strong acid to reveal the free hydroxyl group.
|
| 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 is typically stored as a powder at -20°C for up to 3 years or at 4°C for up to 2 years; in solvent, it can be stored at -80°C for 6 months or at -20°C for 1 month. It is a threonine analogue. 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 Z-Thr(Bzl)-OH 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 protected threonine derivative itself is not administered to animals as a therapeutic agent. It is used in Z/Bzl-based synthetic strategies for peptide assembly.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic properties are not applicable to Z-Thr(Bzl)-OH as it is not a drug. It is a small molecule (MW 343.37 g/mol) with the formula C19H21NO5. Its properties are relevant for chemical handling and storage rather than for systemic exposure studies. The Z and benzyl protecting groups are designed to be removed during peptide synthesis, not to be bioavailable.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
The toxicity of Z-Thr(Bzl)-OH 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 as a powder at -20°C or 4°C. It is not intended for diagnostic, therapeutic, or other medical applications.

| Additional Infomation |
Z-Thr(Bzl)-OH is a doubly protected threonine derivative used as a building block in peptide synthesis. The benzyloxycarbonyl (Z) group protects the α-amine, and the benzyl (Bzl) ether protects the side-chain hydroxyl, making it a key reagent in Z/Bzl-based synthetic strategies. The benzyl protecting group enhances the stability of threonine during stepwise peptide assembly. It is not a pharmaceutical and has no clinical trials or approved therapeutic status.
