:N-Methyl-L-methionine
Description:
N-Methyl-L-methionine, with the CAS number 42537-72-4, is a derivative of the amino acid methionine, characterized by the addition of a methyl group to the nitrogen atom of the amino group. This modification alters its properties compared to standard methionine. N-Methyl-L-methionine is typically a white crystalline solid and is soluble in water, which facilitates its use in various biochemical applications. It plays a role in biological systems, particularly in plant metabolism, where it is involved in the synthesis of certain metabolites and can act as a precursor to other important compounds. The substance is also studied for its potential effects on plant growth and stress responses. In terms of safety, like many amino acid derivatives, it is generally considered to have low toxicity, but specific handling guidelines should be followed in laboratory settings. Overall, N-Methyl-L-methionine is an important compound in both research and agricultural contexts, contributing to our understanding of amino acid metabolism and plant physiology.
