Fmoc-Val-OH is a chemical compound that functions as a protecting group in peptide synthesis. It is used to block the reactive functional groups of amino acids, allowing for selective reactions to occur at specific sites within the peptide chain. This compound attaches to the amino group of the valine residue, preventing unwanted side reactions during the peptide assembly process. By serving as a protective shield, Fmoc-Val-OH enables precise control over the sequence and structure of the synthesized peptide. Its mode of action involves forming stable covalent bonds with the amino acid, effectively masking its reactivity until the deprotection step. This allows for the stepwise elongation of the peptide chain, ensuring the desired sequence is achieved without interference from other reactive groups.
