InvivoChem Cat #:V29827CAS #:63442-81-9Purity >=98%Description: L, L-Dityrosine (o, o'-Dityrosine), a tyrosine dimer formed by 3, 3'-biaryl bond formation, is used as a biomarker to detect oxidative protein damage and selective proteolysis. It is a component of acid hydrolysates of a number of biological materials, including the insect cuticular resilin.
