Chemical Information
NameL-Norleucine
DescriptionAn unnatural amino acid that is used experimentally to study protein structure and function. It is structurally similar to methionine, however it does not contain sulfur. Aminocaproic acid works as an antifibrinolytic. It is a derivative of the amino acid lysine. It binds reversibly to the kringle domain of plasminogen and blocks the binding of plasminogen to fibrin and its activation to plasmin. [HMDB]
