A-methyl-dl-histidine dihydrochloride*crystalline

Description:
A-methyl-dl-histidine dihydrochloride is a synthetic amino acid derivative of histidine, characterized by the presence of a methyl group at the alpha position of the histidine structure. This compound is typically encountered as a crystalline solid and is soluble in water due to the presence of two hydrochloride groups, which enhance its solubility and stability in aqueous environments. It is often used in biochemical research, particularly in studies related to protein synthesis and metabolism, as it can serve as a substrate or inhibitor in various enzymatic reactions. The dihydrochloride form indicates that the compound has two hydrochloride ions associated with it, which can influence its biological activity and interaction with other molecules. Additionally, A-methyl-dl-histidine is known to exhibit properties that can affect muscle metabolism and has been studied for its potential role in muscle physiology. As with many amino acid derivatives, it is important to handle this compound with care, following appropriate safety protocols in laboratory settings.
