Description

(R)-2-Amino-5,5,5-trifluoropentanoic acid is a leucine antagonist. (R)-2-Amino-5,5,5-trifluoropentanoic acid increases Sestrin2 binding to GATOR2. (R)-2-Amino-5,5,5-trifluoropentanoic acid can be used in research on diabetes, neurodegenerative diseases, immune diseases, and cancer[1].

In Vitro

(R)-2-Amino-5,5,5-trifluoropentanoic acid (Compound I-7) (25 μM) increases Sestrin2-GATOR2 binding by at least 40% relative to leucine when tested in a cell-free Sestrin2-GATOR2 interaction assay[1].

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.
