5’-O-DMT-PAC-dA can be used in the synthesis of oligoribonucleotides[1]. [1]. Schulhof JC, et, al. The final deprotection step in oligonucleotide synthesis is reduced to a mild and rapid ammonia treatment by using labile base-protecting groups. Nucleic Acids Res. 1987 Jan 26;15(2):397-416.
2,5-Deoxyfructosazine is a pyrazine derivative that can be found in cured tobacco and is used as a flavoring agent in the food and tobacco industry. Pyrazines, including 2,5-deoxyfructosazine, can be produced either by pyrolytic decomposition of natural compounds or by the reaction of sugars with alcoholic ammonia. 2,5-Deoxyfructosazine is also formed by the breakdown of D-glucosamine at neutral pH. Like glucosamine, 2,5-deoxyfructosazine has DNA strand breakage activity and strongly inhibits IL-2 production by Jurkat cells stimulated with phytohemagglutinin (IC50 = ~1.25 mM).
L-2-Aminooxy-3-phenylpropanoic acid hydrobromide is a powerful inhibitor of L-phenylalanine ammonia-lyase, an enzyme responsible for catalyzing the conversion of L-phenylalanine to trans-cinnamic acid.
Lubabegron, also known as LY591281; LY488756 fumarate, is a veterinary drug used to reduce ammonia emissions from animals and their waste. Ammonia emissions are a concern in agricultural production because of detrimental effects on the environment, human health, and animal health. Lubabegron was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 2018 for use in feedlot cattle. Lubabegron is a beta-adrenergic receptor agonist that has the effect of increasing the breakdown of fats and increasing energy expenditure in cells.
