(2S)-4-(Acetylamino)-2-aminobutanoic acid

Description:
(2S)-4-(Acetylamino)-2-aminobutanoic acid, commonly known as L-threonine, is an essential amino acid that plays a crucial role in protein synthesis and various metabolic processes. It is characterized by its chiral center, which gives rise to its specific stereochemistry, denoted by the (2S) configuration. This compound features an acetylamino group, contributing to its solubility in water and its ability to participate in biochemical reactions. L-threonine is involved in the synthesis of proteins and is a precursor for other important biomolecules, including glycine and serine. It is also significant in the immune response and is utilized in various metabolic pathways. The substance is typically found in a crystalline form and is hygroscopic, meaning it can absorb moisture from the environment. As an essential amino acid, it must be obtained through dietary sources, as the human body cannot synthesize it. Its CAS number, 1190-46-1, is a unique identifier that facilitates the identification and study of this compound in scientific literature and databases.
