Metabolite Identification
Common NamePhenylalanyl-Alanine
DescriptionPhenylalanyl-alanine, also known as F-a dipeptide or phe-ala, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as dipeptides. These are organic compounds containing a sequence of exactly two alpha-amino acids joined by a peptide bond. Phenylalanyl-alanine is possibly soluble (in water) and a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa).
