2-Cyano-L-phenylalanine (L-2-CPA) is a non-proteinogenic amino acid derivative. Researchers have utilized 2-Cyano-L-phenylalanine in studies to investigate the mechanisms of action of various drugs, such as anticonvulsants and analgesics. Additionally, it has been used in studies of enzyme inhibition and protein-ligand binding, due to its ability to interact with multiple enzymes and proteins. Monoamine oxidase is one such enzyme that 2-Cyano-L-phenylalanine may act to inhibit, which is involved in the metabolism of neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine.
