N-Methyl-DL-alanine may be used in studies of amino acid transport mechanisms such as trans-stimulation. N-Methylalanine may be used in the construction of peptide and protein analogues for use in drug or antibiotic design and development.

Spontaneous mutants resistant to methionine sulfoximine (Msx), methyl alanine (Mal) and methyl ammonium chloride (Mac) were derived from A. chroococcum strain A103. Msx and Mal-resistant mutants expressed 1.73 to 10.98% of the fully derepressed nitrogenase activity when grown in Burk's
The actinomycin D (AMD) analogs in which the D-valine residues (the second amino acid residue in the cyclic depsipeptide of AMD) and the N-methyl-L-valine residues (the fifth amino acid residue in the cyclic depsipeptide of AMD) were replaced with D-Phe
A series of endomorphin-1 (EM-1) and endomorphin-2 (EM-2) analogues, containing non-cyclic amino acids (Ala, D-Ala, beta-Ala, NMeAla, D-NMeAla or Sar) instead of Pro in position 2 was synthesized, where NMeAla = N-methylalanine and Sar = N-methylglycine, sarcosine. The opioid activity

1. Epithelial uptake and efflux of the non-metabolized system A analogue 2-methylaminoisobutyric acid (MeAIB) and L-serine were studied in the isolated perfused rat pancreas using a dual tracer loading and wash-out technique. Uptakes of 2-[14C]MeAIB and L-[3H]serine were measured relative

Substituting sarcosine or N-methylalanine for proline in the inhibitory vasopressin analogs dPAVP and d(CH2)5AVP had the following effects: 1) milk ejection and antidiuretic activities were severely depressed, 2) pressor antagonism was maintained but weakened somewhat, and 3) antagonism in the
