O-methyl-L-threonine

Description:

O-methyl-L-threonine is an amino acid derivative characterized by the presence of a methyl group attached to the hydroxyl group of threonine. It is a non-proteinogenic amino acid, meaning it is not incorporated into proteins during translation. This compound features a chiral center, which contributes to its stereochemistry, specifically the L-configuration. O-methyl-L-threonine is soluble in water due to its polar functional groups, which facilitate hydrogen bonding. It is often studied in biochemical research for its potential roles in metabolic pathways and its effects on protein structure and function. The compound may also exhibit biological activities, making it of interest in pharmacological studies. As with many amino acid derivatives, it can participate in various chemical reactions, including esterification and amidation, which can be useful in synthetic organic chemistry. Its CAS number, 4144-02-9, is a unique identifier that aids in the cataloging and retrieval of information related to this specific chemical substance.

O-Methyl-L-threonine

CAS: 4144-02-9

O-Methyl-L-threonine is an analog of L-threonine. O-Methyl-L-threonine inhibits the production of fatty acids in resistant mutants, which are activated by the addition of a hydroxy group to their amino acid backbone. This analog has been shown to be effective at suppressing the growth of animal health bacteria and fungi, and has been used as a treatment for protein synthesis disorders in animals. O-Methyl-L-threonine is also used as a precursor for nicotinic acetylcholine synthesis. In vivo tests have shown that it has no toxic effects on mammalian cells, but does not inhibit photosynthesis in plants.
