6-oxolysine

Description:

6-Oxolysine, identified by its CAS number 34218-76-3, is an amino acid derivative characterized by the presence of an oxo group (a carbonyl group) at the sixth position of the lysine structure. This compound is part of a broader class of amino acids that play significant roles in biological systems, particularly in protein synthesis and metabolic pathways. The presence of the oxo group can influence its reactivity and interactions with other biomolecules. Typically, amino acids like 6-oxolysine exhibit properties such as solubility in water, the ability to form hydrogen bonds, and potential participation in enzymatic reactions. The structural modifications in 6-oxolysine may also affect its biological activity, making it of interest in research related to biochemistry and pharmacology. However, specific applications and biological roles may vary, and further studies are often required to elucidate its full potential and implications in various fields, including medicinal chemistry and biotechnology.
