CAS 338-69-2

D-Alanine

Description:

D-Alanine is an amino acid that serves as a building block for proteins and is one of the two enantiomers of alanine, the other being L-alanine. It is a non-polar, aliphatic amino acid characterized by its simple structure, which includes an amino group (-NH2), a carboxyl group (-COOH), and a side chain that is a methyl group (-CH3). D-Alanine is less common in proteins compared to its L-form but plays a crucial role in various biological processes, including the synthesis of peptidoglycan in bacterial cell walls. It is also involved in metabolic pathways and can act as a neurotransmitter in certain contexts. D-Alanine is soluble in water and exhibits zwitterionic properties at physiological pH, meaning it can carry both a positive and a negative charge. Its CAS number, 338-69-2, is used for identification in chemical databases. Overall, D-Alanine is significant in both biochemistry and microbiology, contributing to the understanding of protein structure and function.

D-Alanine

CAS: 338-69-2

D-Alanine is a small-molecule drug that inhibits the hepatitis B virus. It has been shown to decrease the levels of HBV-DNA in chronic hepatitis patients. D-Alanine may be effective for reducing hepatic steatosis and improving liver function, which may be due to its ability to reduce the expression of δ receptors. D-Alanine can inhibit viral replication by interfering with the polymerase chain reaction and inhibiting human serum albumin from binding to HBV-DNA. D-alanine also has an antioxidant effect and can scavenge anion radicals.
