CAS 13073-35-3: L-Homocysteine, S-ethyl-

Description: L-Homocysteine, S-ethyl- is a sulfur-containing amino acid derivative that plays a role in various biochemical processes, particularly in the metabolism of homocysteine, an important amino acid in the body. This compound is characterized by the presence of an ethyl group attached to the sulfur atom of homocysteine, which can influence its reactivity and biological activity. L-Homocysteine, S-ethyl- is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in water, making it accessible for various applications in biochemical research and potential therapeutic contexts. Its structure includes an amino group, a carboxyl group, and a thiol group, which are common features of amino acids. The compound is of interest in studies related to cardiovascular health, as elevated levels of homocysteine are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases. Additionally, it may serve as a precursor in the synthesis of other biologically relevant compounds. As with many amino acid derivatives, its stability and reactivity can be influenced by environmental factors such as pH and temperature.
