Glycine-15N(CAT: C000374) is a specialized isotopically labeled form of the amino acid glycine, where the nitrogen atom is replaced with its 15N isotope. This isotopic substitution is commonly employed in pharmaceutical research, particularly in the field of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. It serves as a valuable tool for studying protein structures and interactions by providing distinct NMR signals that aid in elucidating molecular structures and dynamics. In organic chemistry, glycine-15N is used as a tracer to monitor metabolic pathways and investigate biochemical processes.
