L-ALANINE (U-13C3)

Description:

L-Alanine (U-13C3) is a stable isotope-labeled form of the amino acid L-alanine, where three carbon atoms are isotopically enriched with carbon-13 (13C). This compound is characterized by its role as a non-essential amino acid, which means that it can be synthesized by the body and is not required to be obtained solely through diet. L-Alanine is involved in various metabolic processes, including gluconeogenesis and the synthesis of proteins. The presence of the 13C isotopes allows for enhanced tracking and analysis in metabolic studies, particularly in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. This labeling can provide insights into metabolic pathways and the dynamics of amino acid utilization in biological systems. L-Alanine is typically a white crystalline powder, soluble in water, and has a slightly sweet taste. Its CAS number, 100108-77-8, specifically identifies this isotopically labeled variant, distinguishing it from other forms of alanine.
