H-Met-NH2·HCl by Molecular Depot is a H-Met-NH2 hydrochloride, which is L-methionine amide as its hydrochloride salt. Converting the carboxyl terminus of an amino acid into an amide blocks it, so the residue can only be extended at its amino end, and it reproduces the neutral carboxy-terminal amide of many natural peptide hormones. It is used as a building block in peptide synthesis, in the preparation of carboxy-terminally amidated peptides and as a reference compound in amino acid chemistry. Each unit contains 50 mg. MBP supplies Molecular Depot research reagents to research labs in the United States, Canada and worldwide.
