Homotyrosine is a non-proteinogenic amino acid and an analogue of the proteinogenic amino acid tyrosine .

Isomers

Homotyrosine has a stereocenter , so there are two enantiomers . When homotyrosine is mentioned in the scientific literature without a prefix, it is usually L- homotyrosine that is meant. Its enantiomer - i.e. D -homotyrosine - is of only marginal importance.

properties

L- homotyrosine is formed by the blue-green alga Planktothrix rubescens and incorporated into two microcystins ( MC-Hty Y and MC-HtyHty ) by non-ribosomal peptide synthetases . It is also used by Anabaena sp. 66 formed and incorporated into microcystins ([Dha7] -microcystin-HtyR, [D-Asp3, Dha7] -microcystin-HtyR and [L-Ser7] microcystin-HtyR). It also occurs in the fungicidal substances Echinocandin B and Pneumocandin B 0 .

L- homotyrosine is used as an analogue of tyrosine in peptide synthesis .
