CAS 58-27-5
:Menadione
Description:
Menadione, also known as vitamin K3, is a synthetic compound that serves as a precursor to vitamin K in the body. It is a fat-soluble vitamin characterized by its yellow crystalline appearance and is soluble in organic solvents but poorly soluble in water. Menadione plays a crucial role in the synthesis of certain proteins required for blood coagulation and bone metabolism. Its chemical structure features a naphthoquinone backbone, which is responsible for its biological activity. Menadione is often used in animal feed and dietary supplements due to its ability to promote healthy blood clotting. However, it is important to note that excessive intake can lead to toxicity, including potential liver damage and allergic reactions. In laboratory settings, menadione is utilized in various biochemical assays and research applications. Its CAS number, 58-27-5, is a unique identifier that facilitates the identification and regulation of this compound in scientific literature and regulatory frameworks.

CAS:<p>Menadione, also known as vitamin K3, is a chemical compound which is used as a cofactor in the synthesis of blood clotting factors. Menadione has been shown to protect proteins against oxidative damage. Menadione interacts with two types of DNA-binding proteins: response element (RE) and natural compounds. Menadione binds to the response elements on DNA and regulates gene expression. Menadione has been shown to inhibit protein oxidation in hl-60 cells and human polymorphonuclear leukocytes. The mechanism for this inhibition is not yet well understood but may be due to the ability of menadione to bind to reactive oxygen species (ROS). Menadione also binds to natural compounds that regulate gene expression; these compounds are small molecules that interact with DNA at points other than response elements. These binding sites are found upstream from genes, where they act as transcriptional regulators or repressors by altering the rate of transcription.
