Phenylglycine is the organic compound with the formula C 6 H 5 CH(NH 2)CO 2 H. It is a non-proteinogenic alpha amino acid related to alanine, but with a phenyl group in place of the methyl group. It is a white solid. The compound exhibits some biological activity. [1]
4-Hydroxyphenylglycine (HPG) is a non-proteogenic amino acid found in vancomycin and related glycopeptides. HPG is synthesized from the shikimic acid pathway and requires four enzymes to synthesize: [1] Both L- and D-HPG are used in the vancomycin class of antibiotics.
DAPT is a chemical compound used in the study of the Notch signaling pathway. [1] DAPT is a γ-secretase inhibitor. It indirectly inhibits Notch, which is a substrate for γ-secretase. [2] In a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease, DAPT reduces the levels of beta-amyloid. [3]
When synthesized in bacteria, DHPG requires 5 enzymes, DpgA-D and 4-hydroxyphenylglycine transferase (Pgat), in order to be synthesized. [4] DpgA is a type III polyketide synthase and initiates the synthesis by condensing acetyl-CoA with three molecules of malonyl-CoA.
