 | Hazard Information | Back Directory |  | [Uses] 
 L-2-Nitrophenylalanine is a derivative of L-phenylalanine (P319415), and is used in the photocleavage of polypeptide backbones. L-Phenylalanine is an essential amino acid. L-Phenylalanine is biologically converted into L-tyrosine, another one of the DNA-encoded amino acids, which in turn is converted to L-DOPA and further converted into dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine.
