α-Methyl-DL-aspartic acid, min. 95 %, 250 mg

α-Methyl-DL-aspartic acid is a methyl-substituted aspartic acid derivative offered at a minimum purity of 95 % for chemical and biochemical research. It is registered under CAS number 2792-66-7 with empirical formula C₅H₉NO₄ and a molar mass of 147,13 g/mol. The DL designation indicates the racemic form of this non-proteinogenic amino acid analogue, in which a methyl group is present at the α-carbon relative to standard aspartic acid. Such structural modification is frequently of interest in studies of amino-acid metabolism, receptor interactions, and synthetic peptide or small-molecule design. The product is Available from manufacturer Carl ROTH within the fine chemicals and biochemicals range, it supports laboratories that require a clearly specified CAS identity and molar mass for documentation and method transfer. Consistent labelling of formula and purity helps integrate the reagent into validated workflows, screening panels, and teaching or development experiments where controlled amino-acid analogues are needed.
