Application

L-Phenylalanine has been used in Fluo-4 Ca²⁺-assay in a study to demonstrate that G-protein coupled receptor 139 reference surrogate agonists 1a and 7c and L-phenylalanine share a common binding site. It has also been used to spike blood samples to study the effect of dried blood spots on newborn screening.

Biochem/physiol Actions
