DL-Propargylglycine

Description:

DL-Propargylglycine, with the CAS number 64165-64-6, is an amino acid derivative characterized by its unique propargyl functional group. This compound is a racemic mixture of two enantiomers, which means it contains both the D- and L- forms of propargylglycine. It is known for its role as a selective inhibitor of the enzyme cystathionine gamma-lyase, which is involved in the transsulfuration pathway of sulfur amino acids. This inhibition can have implications in various biological processes, including the regulation of hydrogen sulfide production in the body. DL-Propargylglycine is typically a white to off-white crystalline solid and is soluble in water and other polar solvents. Its applications extend to biochemical research, particularly in studies related to metabolic pathways and potential therapeutic interventions for conditions associated with altered sulfur metabolism. As with many chemical substances, proper handling and safety precautions are essential due to its biological activity.
