Metabolite Identification

Common Name

L-Phenylalanine

Description

L-Phenylalanine, also known as F or endorphenyl, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as phenylalanine and derivatives. Phenylalanine and derivatives are compounds containing phenylalanine or a derivative thereof resulting from reaction of phenylalanine at the amino group or the carboxy group, or from the replacement of any hydrogen of glycine by a heteroatom. L-Phenylalanine exists as a solid, possibly soluble (in water), and a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa) molecule. L-Phenylalanine exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. L-Phenylalanine is a potentially toxic compound.
