L-Hydroxylysine

Description:
L-Hydroxylysine is an amino acid derivative that is a hydroxylated form of lysine, characterized by the presence of a hydroxyl (-OH) group attached to the side chain of the lysine molecule. It is a non-proteinogenic amino acid, meaning it is not directly incorporated into proteins during translation but plays a significant role in post-translational modifications, particularly in collagen synthesis. L-Hydroxylysine is crucial for the stability and structure of collagen, as it contributes to cross-linking between collagen fibers, enhancing the tensile strength of connective tissues. This compound is typically found in animal tissues, especially in collagen-rich structures. In terms of solubility, L-hydroxylysine is generally soluble in water due to its polar hydroxyl group. Its chemical formula includes carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen, reflecting its classification as an amino acid. Additionally, L-hydroxylysine has potential applications in biochemistry and medicine, particularly in studies related to collagen disorders and tissue engineering.
