Name: BEC HCl, attachment is NMR, we have 50g in stock.
Description: BEC, also known as S-(2-boronoethyl)-L-cysteine, is an a slow-binding and competitive Arginase II inhibitor with Ki of 0.31 μM (ph 7.5). BEC significantly enhances NO-dependent relaxation of human penile corpus canvernosum smooth muscle in vitro at concentrations between 0.1-1.0 mM. S-(2-boronoethyl)-L-cysteine binds to arginase as a transition state analogue and enhances smooth muscle relaxation in human penile corpus cavernosum.
