DL-Allylglycine（Cat No.:I021795）is a synthetic amino acid that combines both the D- and L-enantiomers of allylglycine. It is structurally similar to glycine but features an allyl group (a three-carbon alkene) attached to the α-carbon. DL-Allylglycine is used primarily in biochemical research to study amino acid metabolism and to explore enzyme inhibition or activation. It has applications in the synthesis of peptides and in the design of compounds for investigating various cellular pathways. Additionally, it may serve as a model compound for studying metabolic disorders and for exploring potential therapeutic agents.
