L-Lysine

Description:
L-Lysine, with the CAS number 56-87-1, is an essential amino acid that plays a crucial role in protein synthesis and various metabolic processes. It is classified as a basic amino acid due to its positively charged side chain at physiological pH, which contributes to its solubility in water. L-Lysine is typically found in animal proteins and is vital for growth, tissue repair, and the production of hormones and enzymes. It is also involved in the synthesis of collagen, which is important for skin and connective tissue health. In addition to its biological functions, L-Lysine is often used as a dietary supplement to support immune function and may help in the management of herpes simplex virus outbreaks. The substance is generally recognized as safe when consumed in appropriate amounts, although excessive intake can lead to gastrointestinal discomfort. L-Lysine is available in various forms, including powders and capsules, and is commonly included in protein-rich foods such as meat, dairy, and legumes.
