O-tert-Butyl-L-tyrosine methyl ester hydrochloride is a synthetic compound derived from tyrosine, an amino acid essential to protein structure. It serves as useful in enzyme assays, enabling the measurement of tyrosine-dependent enzyme activity, and aids in investigations into the regulation of tyrosine metabolism. Additionally, it is employed in studies exploring the impact of tyrosine on cell growth and differentiation. As an inhibitor of tyrosine-dependent enzymes, such as tyrosine hydroxylase and tyrosinase, O-tert-Butyl-L-tyrosine methyl ester hydrochloride binds to the enzyme′s active site, hindering its catalytic function and impeding the intended reaction.
