3-Hydroxyproline

Description:
3-Hydroxyproline is a non-proteinogenic amino acid that is a derivative of proline, characterized by the presence of a hydroxyl group at the third carbon position. Its molecular formula is C5H9NO3, and it features a five-membered pyrrolidine ring structure typical of proline derivatives. This compound is often found in collagen and is significant in the biosynthesis of various proteins, contributing to the stability and structure of collagen fibers due to its ability to form hydrogen bonds. 3-Hydroxyproline is also involved in metabolic pathways and can influence the mechanical properties of connective tissues. It is a white crystalline solid that is soluble in water and exhibits a slightly acidic nature. The compound has applications in biochemistry and pharmaceuticals, particularly in studies related to collagen synthesis and disorders associated with connective tissue. Its CAS number, 567-36-2, is used for identification in chemical databases and regulatory contexts.
