General Description

FMOC-ALA-ALA-OH is an Fmoc-protected dipeptide consisting of two L-alanine residues. This pre-formed dipeptide unit is used to streamline the synthesis of peptides containing the Ala-Ala sequence.

Mechanism of Action

It serves as a dipeptide building block. Using a pre-synthesized dimer reduces the number of coupling steps required in SPPS, which can minimize racemization and increase the overall purity and yield of long or difficult peptide sequences.

Application

It is applied in the synthesis of collagen-like peptides, enzyme substrates, and as a component in the development of self-assembling peptide biomaterials.
