Dns-Amino Acids

Dansyl (Dns)-amino acids are a type of amino acid derivatives commonly used in peptide synthesis. The Dns group, also known as the 5-(dimethylamino)naphthalene-1-sulfonyl group, is a fluorescent dye that can be attached to the amino group of an amino acid to provide protection during peptide synthesis. This protection helps prevent unwanted side reactions and ensures that the amino acid is incorporated into the peptide chain in a controlled manner. With many years of experience in the design and synthesis of protected amino acids, Alfa Chemistry has successfully produced a series of Dns-amino acids.
