Phenylalanine
Phenylalanine (symbol Phe) is an essential α-amino acid with the formula C9H11NO2. It can be viewed as a benzyl group substituted for the methyl group of alanine, or a phenyl group in place of a terminal hydrogen of alanine. The phenylalanine is named "2-aminophenylalanine", which is a type of α-amino acid. L-phenylalanine is a biologically active optical isomer.

Market perspective
Phenylalanine (symbol Phe) is an essential α-amino acid with the formula C9H11NO2. It can be viewed as a benzyl group substituted for the methyl group of alanine, or a phenyl group in place of a terminal hydrogen of alanine. The phenylalanine is named "2-aminophenylalanine", which is a type of α-amino acid. L-phenylalanine is a biologically active optical isomer.
In the global L-phenylalanine industry, Japan's Ajinomoto, Korea Daesang etc. are leaders in this industry. However, the monopoly phenomenon of the L-phenylalanine industry is not obvious. Through continuous technological innovation, Chinese companies have broken the monopoly of the original industry giants on the L-phenylalanine market. Amino acid technology has gradually matured and is not innovative in China. In the international market, American Newt and Dutch DSM exited the industry in 2014 and 2006, respectively.
