Z-Phe-Phe-OH (CAS 13122-91-3)
QUICK LINKS
Z-Phe-Phe-OH is a dipeptide compound that functions as an inhibitor in enzymatic reactions. It acts by binding to the active site of specific enzymes, preventing their normal substrate from binding and inhibiting their catalytic activity. Z-Phe-Phe-Oh is known to interact with proteases and peptidases, disrupting their function and leading to the inhibition of peptide bond cleavage. Z-Phe-Phe-OH achieves this by forming stable complexes with the active site of the enzyme, thereby interfering with the normal enzymatic process. Its mechanism of action involves specific interactions with amino acid residues within the enzyme′s active site, disrupting the catalytic mechanism and leading to the inhibition of enzymatic activity. Z-Phe-Phe-Oh′s ability to inhibit specific enzymes may be useful for studying enzyme function and developing a deeper understanding of their role in biological processes.
