4-Amino-2-hydroxybutanoic acid

Description:

4-Amino-2-hydroxybutanoic acid, also known as L-threonine, is an α-amino acid that plays a crucial role in protein synthesis. It is characterized by the presence of an amino group (-NH2), a hydroxyl group (-OH), and a carboxylic acid group (-COOH) attached to a four-carbon backbone. This compound is classified as a polar, hydrophilic amino acid due to its hydroxyl group, which enhances its solubility in water. L-threonine is essential for humans, meaning it must be obtained through dietary sources, as the body cannot synthesize it. It is involved in various metabolic processes, including the synthesis of proteins, the production of neurotransmitters, and the maintenance of immune function. Additionally, L-threonine is important for the formation of collagen and elastin, contributing to skin and connective tissue health. Its CAS number, 13477-53-7, is a unique identifier used to facilitate the identification of this specific chemical substance in various databases and regulatory frameworks.
