Djenkolic acid

Description:

Djenkolic acid, with the CAS number 498-59-9, is a naturally occurring amino acid derivative primarily found in the seeds of the Djenkol tree (Archidendron jiringa). It is characterized by its unique structure, which includes a dithiol group, contributing to its distinctive properties. Djenkolic acid is known for its potential toxicity, particularly when consumed in large quantities, as it can lead to djenkolic acid poisoning, characterized by symptoms such as hemolysis and kidney damage. The compound is soluble in water and exhibits a relatively high melting point. Its chemical structure allows it to participate in various biochemical processes, although its exact metabolic pathways in humans are not fully understood. Additionally, djenkolic acid has garnered interest in research for its potential pharmacological effects, although further studies are needed to elucidate its mechanisms and therapeutic applications. Overall, while djenkolic acid has intriguing properties, caution is advised due to its toxicological profile.

Djenkolic acid

CAS: 498-59-9

Djenkolic acid is a selenium-containing compound that inhibits the bacterial enzyme, β-lactamase. It has been shown to have a broad spectrum of activity against bacteria, including Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Djenkolic acid is active against many drug resistant strains of bacteria. This compound is a competitive inhibitor of the enzyme and reversibly inhibits β-lactamase, interfering with bacterial protein synthesis. The inhibition of protein synthesis by djenkolic acid is irreversible. Djenkolic acid also has an inhibitory effect on human serum albumin and tissue culture cells but not cell culture. It also has an inhibitory effect on the growth of phytopathogenic fungi such as Phytophthora infestans and Phytophthora sojae. Djenkolic acid shows efficacy in plants such as corn, wheat, barley, oats, rye, cottonwood and poplar trees.
