L-Alanine-1-13C（Cat No.:S000672） is a labeled variant of L-alanine, where the alpha carbon is enriched with carbon-13. This specific isotopic labeling enhances its detectability in analytical methods such as NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry, making it particularly useful for studying metabolic pathways involving alanine. L-alanine is a non-essential amino acid crucial for protein synthesis and plays a significant role in glucose metabolism. The carbon-13 enrichment at the first position allows researchers to trace and analyze alanine’s incorporation into proteins and its transformations in various metabolic processes, providing valuable insights into its biological functions.
