cis-2-Amino-cyclopentanecarboxylic acid (CAS 37910-65-9)
QUICK LINKS
cis-2-Amino-cyclopentanecarboxylic acid is a compound employed in the field of bioorganic chemistry and as an element in peptide research. Its cis configuration introduces conformational constraints when incorporated into peptides, which can be instrumental in studying structure-activity relationships and in the design of peptidomimetics. The rigidity imposed by the cyclopentane ring is often used to mimic secondary structures of proteins, such as turns or loops, which are critical for biological function. Researchers leverage this constrained amino acid to explore the impact of conformation on the stability and bioactivity of peptides, with implications for understanding protein folding and the design of enzyme inhibitors.
