H-DL-Nle-OH（Cat No.:R071044）is a synthetic amino acid derivative used in peptide synthesis. It consists of a DL mixture of norleucine (Nle) bound to a protected N-terminal, denoted by the “H” group, which prevents unwanted reactions during peptide formation. Norleucine is a non-proteinogenic amino acid, a structural analog of leucine, and is often used in research to study protein structure and function. The compound plays a role in producing peptides where specific modifications are required. The presence of the free hydroxyl group (-OH) at the C-terminal allows for easy coupling in peptide synthesis.
