L-Tyrosine-15N(Cat No.:S000592) is a specialized form of tyrosine, an aromatic amino acid crucial for protein synthesis and serving as a precursor for important neurotransmitters and hormones. The “15N” designation indicates that all nitrogen atoms in the tyrosine molecule are replaced with the stable nitrogen isotope nitrogen-15. This isotopic labeling enables precise tracking of tyrosine metabolism and its incorporation into various biochemical pathways using techniques like mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. L-Tyrosine-15N is invaluable for studying neurotransmitter synthesis, and protein turnover, and understanding the role of tyrosine in cellular physiology and disease processes.
