Application

Boc-Lys-OH (Nα-Boc-L-lysine) can be used as a building block to synthesize:
  • A heterotrifunctional peptide-based linker molecule applicable as a bio-labeling reagent.
  • Lysine derivatives of azamacrocycle and anthraquinone.
  • Boc-Lys(Bn4-DTPA)-OH, a precursor to synthesize diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA) containing peptides.
  • A ferrocene-amino acid conjugate which is used in developing chemical warfare agent (CWA) sensor.

Different metabolic and excretion pathways of the benzyl glucosinolate breakdown products benzyl isothiocyanate and benzyl cyanide are investigated to obtain information about their multiple fate after ingestion. Detailed focus is on the so far underestimated transformation/excretion pathways-protein conjugation and exhalation.

Glucosinolates and their breakdown products, especially isothiocyanates (ITCs), are hypothesized to exert a broad range of bioactivities. However, physiological mechanisms are not yet completely understood. In this study, formation of protein conjugates after incubation with benzyl isothiocyanate (BITC) was investigated
