CAS 4378-14-7
:N-(1-methylpropyl)homocysteine
Description:
N-(1-methylpropyl)homocysteine, with the CAS number 4378-14-7, is an amino acid derivative that is structurally related to homocysteine, an important compound in the metabolism of sulfur-containing amino acids. This substance features a side chain that includes a 1-methylpropyl group, which influences its chemical properties and biological activity. It is typically classified as a non-proteinogenic amino acid, meaning it is not incorporated into proteins during translation. The presence of the methylpropyl group may affect its solubility, reactivity, and interaction with biological systems. N-(1-methylpropyl)homocysteine is of interest in biochemical research, particularly in studies related to cardiovascular health and metabolic disorders, as homocysteine levels are associated with various health conditions. The compound may also be involved in pathways related to methylation processes in the body. As with many amino acid derivatives, its stability, reactivity, and potential applications can vary based on environmental conditions such as pH and temperature.
