Product Name – Fmoc-Cys(Mmt)-Oh Quantity/Pack Size – 25 G Form – Powder Grade – Laboratory Grade Application – Peptide Synthesis
Product Overview
Fmoc-Cys(Mmt)-Oh is a specialized reagent used in the synthesis of peptides. This compound is designed to protect the cysteine residue during peptide synthesis, ensuring high yield and purity of the final product. The Fmoc (Fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl) group provides efficient protection of the amino terminus, while the Mmt (4-Methoxytrityl) group protects the thiol functionality of cysteine. This dual protection strategy is crucial for preventing side reactions and ensuring the integrity of the peptide chain. The high purity of Fmoc-Cys(Mmt)-Oh makes it a reliable choice for both academic research and industrial applications. Its stable formulation ensures consistent performance, making it an essential tool for any laboratory involved in peptide synthesis.
