Previous studies have identified that indole-oxidases are present in P. putida, whose major ligands are heterocyclic substrates and have an interesting affinity when the substrate is indole. 35737-15-6, formula is C26H22N2O4, Name is Fmoc-Trp-OH. These enzymes oxidize the ring so the substrate turns into Indigo. Category: indole-building-block.
Lindner, Simon;Rudolf, Henning;Palumbo, Giovanna;Oos, Rosel;Antons, Melissa;Huebner, Ralph;Bartenstein, Peter;Schirrmacher, Ralf;Waengler, Bjoern;Waengler, Carmen research published 《 Are heterobivalent GRPR- and VPAC1R-bispecific radiopeptides suitable for efficient in vivo tumor imaging of prostate carcinomas?》, the research content is summarized as follows. Receptor-specific peptides labeled with positron emitters play an important role in the clin. imaging of several malignancies by positron emission tomog. (PET). Radiolabeled heterobivalent bispecific peptidic ligands (HBPLs) can target more than one receptor type and by this – besides exhibiting other advantages – increase tumor imaging sensitivity. In the present study, we show the initial in vivo evaluation of the most potent heterobivalent gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (GRPR)- and vasoactive intestinal peptide receptor subtype 1 (VPAC1R)-bispecific radiotracer and determined its tumor visualization potential via PET/CT imaging. For this purpose, the most potent described HBPL was synthesized together with its partly scrambled heterobivalent monospecific homologs and its monovalent counterparts. The agents were efficiently labeled with 68Ga3+ and evaluated in an initial PET/CT tumor imaging study in a human prostate carcinoma (PCa) xenograft rat tumor model established for this purpose. None of the three 68Ga-HBPLs enabled a clear tumor visualization and a considerably higher involvement in receptor-mediated uptake was found for the GRPR-binding part of the mol. than for the VPAC1R-binding one. Of the monovalent radiotracers, only [68Ga]Ga-NODA-GA-PESIN could efficiently delineate the tumor, confirming the results. Thus, this work sets the direction for future developments in the field of GRPR- and VPAC1R-bispecific radioligands, which should be based on other VPAC1R-specific peptides than PACAP-27.
Category: indole-building-block, Nalpha-FMOC-L-Tryptophan,also known as Fmoc-Trp-OH, is a useful research compound. Its molecular formula is C26H22N2O4 and its molecular weight is 426.5 g/mol. The purity is usually 95%.
Nα-Fmoc-L-Tryptophan is an N-Fmoc protected form of L-Tryptophan (T947210). L-Tryptophan is an essential amino acid that is important for cell proliferation and the biosynthesis of proteins. It is a precursor to Serotonin (HCl: S274980), a neurotransmitter that compound that aids in sleep and mental state. L-Tryptophan is also thought to cause eosinophilia-myalgia syndrome.
Fmoc-Trp-OH is an amino acid derivative
Fmoc-L-Trp-OH is an amide that contains a low bioavailability and inhibits the transfer of amino acids to ribosomes. It has been shown to inhibit the growth of cancer cells in cell culture and to have antimicrobial activity. Fmoc-L-Trp-OH is synthesized by reacting Naphthalene with glycine, followed by hydrolysis of the ester group under trifluoroacetic acid. The product is then conjugated with a polypeptide. This method of synthesis was developed as a way to produce peptides that are difficult to synthesize using solid-phase chemistry., 35737-15-6.
