(2R)-3-Hydroxy-2-methylpropanoic acid

Description:
(2R)-3-Hydroxy-2-methylpropanoic acid, also known as L-threonine, is an α-amino acid that plays a crucial role in protein synthesis. It is characterized by its hydroxyl group (-OH) attached to the carbon chain, which contributes to its solubility in water and its ability to participate in hydrogen bonding. This compound has a chiral center, making it optically active, and it exists in the L-configuration, which is biologically relevant for protein incorporation. L-threonine is essential for humans, meaning it must be obtained through the diet, as the body cannot synthesize it. It is involved in various metabolic processes, including the synthesis of glycine and serine, and is important for immune function and the production of antibodies. The substance is typically found in a crystalline form and is stable under standard conditions. Its CAS number, 1910-47-0, is a unique identifier that facilitates its recognition in chemical databases and literature.
