Phenylalanine ball and stick model spinning. Phenylalanine (symbol Phe or F) [3] is an essential α-amino acid with the formula C 9 H 11 NO 2.It can be viewed as a benzyl group substituted for the methyl group of alanine, or a phenyl group in place of a terminal hydrogen of alanine.
2-Amino-3-phenyl-propanoic acid Abbreviations: F, Phe Synonyms: alpha-Amino-beta-phenylpropionic acid ... (phenylalanine) ^a CID 71567 from PubChem (D-phenylalanine)
Placeholder when the amino acid is unknown or unimportant. Tyrosine: Y Tyr Tyr behaves similarly to phenylalanine (precursor to tyrosine) and tryptophan, and is a precursor of melanin, epinephrine, and thyroid hormones. Naturally fluorescent, its fluorescence is usually quenched by energy transfer to tryptophans. Glutamic acid or glutamine: Z Glx
An aromatic amino acid is an amino acid that includes an aromatic ring. Phenylalanine Among the 20 standard amino acids , histidine , phenylalanine , tryptophan , tyrosine , are classified as aromatic.

The first table—the standard table—can be used to translate nucleotide triplets into the corresponding amino acid or appropriate signal if it is a start or stop codon. The second table, appropriately called the inverse, does the opposite: it can be used to deduce a possible triplet code if the amino acid is known.
Since the proteins have acidic and basic regions, they can serve as both proton donors or acceptors in order to maintain a relatively stable intracellular pH. In the case of a phosphate buffer, substantial quantities of weak acid and conjugate weak base (H 2 PO 4 – and HPO 4 2– ) can accept or donate protons accordingly in order to conserve ...
Maintain plasma phenylalanine values in therapeutic range of 120 to 360 mM using a diet that restricts phenylalanine but otherwise nutritionally complete. Treatment for life is recommended to reduce the risk of long term neuropsychiatric problems and reduce the risk of maternal PKU syndrome.
