N-Oleoyl-L-phenylalanine is a long-chain N-acyl-L-phenylalanine and also a mitochondrial uncoupler. N-Oleoyl-L-phenylalanine uncouples UCP1-independent respiration in mitochondria, thereby helping to regulate glucose homeostasis. As an endogenous metabolite, the level of N-Oleoyl-L-phenylalanine increases in patients with ulcerative colitis after a high-fat diet. N-Oleoyl-L-phenylalanine can be used in studies related to ulcerative colitis.

Description

N-Oleoyl-L-phenylalanine is a long-chain N-acyl-L-phenylalanine and also a mitochondrial uncoupler. N-Oleoyl-L-phenylalanine uncouples UCP1-independent respiration in mitochondria, thereby helping to regulate glucose homeostasis. As an endogenous metabolite, the level of N-Oleoyl-L-phenylalanine increases in patients with ulcerative colitis after a high-fat diet. N-Oleoyl-L-phenylalanine can be used in studies related to ulcerative colitis[1][2].

In Vitro

N-oleoyl-L-phenylalanine uncouples UPC1-independent respiration in mammalian mitochondria and may participate in the regulation of glucose homeostasis[2].
N-oleoyl-L-phenylalanine is an endogenous cell-signaling lipid molecule structurally related to endocannabinoid lipids[2].
N-oleoyl-L-phenylalanine can be directly synthesized via the condensation of oleic acid and L-phenylalanine catalyzed by the mammalian enzyme peptidase M20 domain PM20D1 under physiological pH and substrate concentration conditions. Its production level corresponds to the intracellular concentrations of L-phenylalanine and oleic acid as well as the reaction equilibrium constant (Keq)[2].

In Vivo

N-oleoyl-L-phenylalanine belongs to N-acyl aromatic amino acids (NA-ArAAs), a class of long-chain lipidated amino acids, and is detected and quantified in biological samples such as mouse brains[2].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
