Application

4-(Aminomethyl)benzoic acid (PAMBA) can be used in the synthesis of:
  • Cobalt carboxy phosphonates.
  • Apoptozole (Az), which has cellular potency to promote membrane trafficking of mutant cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) chloride channel activity.
  • Cyclopeptide composed of L-glutamic acid and 3-aminobenzoic acid that can be used as receptors for a variety of cations and anions.
  • A bioactive peptide which has potent GPR54 (a G protein-coupled receptor) agonistic activity.

Other Notes

4-(Aminomethyl)benzoic acid is also an antihemorrhagic agent, which is used for the treatment of internal haemorrhage.

Formation of [bn+17+cat]+ is a prominent collision-induced dissociation (CID) pathway for Li+- and Na+-cationized peptides. Dissociation of protonated and Ag+-cationized peptides instead favors formation of the rival bn+/[bn-1+cat]+ species. In this study the influence of a 4-aminomethylbenzoic acid (4AMBz) residue
