L-Asparagine, 3-fluoro-(9CI) is a fluorinated derivative of the amino acid L-asparagine, characterized by the presence of a fluorine atom at the third carbon position of its side chain. This compound is classified as an amino acid and is involved in various biochemical processes, including protein synthesis and metabolism. The fluorine substitution can influence the compound's properties, such as its solubility, reactivity, and biological activity. L-Asparagine itself is a non-essential amino acid, meaning that it can be synthesized by the body. The presence of the fluorine atom may enhance its stability or alter its interaction with biological targets, making it of interest in pharmaceutical research and development. The compound is typically used in laboratory settings for studies related to amino acid metabolism, protein engineering, and the design of novel therapeutics. As with many fluorinated compounds, safety and handling precautions should be observed due to potential toxicity and environmental impact.

L-Asparagine, 3-fluoro-(9CI)

3-Fluoro-L-asparagine (3S-3FA) is a nonessential amino acid that is synthesized from aspartic acid and pyruvic acid. It can also be converted to L-asparaginase by hydrolysis of the ester bond. 3S-3FA has been shown to inhibit protein synthesis in leukemia cells, which may be due to its effects on cellular metabolism. 3S-3FA has also been shown to have antileukemia activity in a model system, an analog of prohormone, and oligosaccharides. This compound has also been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties that may be due to its ability to inhibit protein glycosylation in mammalian cells.
