Dimethylsulfoniopropionate

Description:

Dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) is a naturally occurring organosulfur compound with the chemical formula C5H12O2S. It is characterized by its role as an osmolyte in marine organisms, particularly in phytoplankton, where it helps to stabilize proteins and cellular structures under stress conditions. DMSP is a colorless, odorless liquid that is soluble in water and polar solvents, making it readily available for biological processes. It has a relatively low molecular weight and features a sulfonium group, which contributes to its unique chemical properties. DMSP can be metabolized by various marine bacteria, leading to the production of dimethyl sulfide (DMS), a compound that plays a significant role in atmospheric chemistry and climate regulation. Additionally, DMSP has been studied for its potential applications in agriculture and aquaculture due to its beneficial effects on plant and microbial health. Overall, DMSP is an important compound in both ecological and biochemical contexts, reflecting its diverse roles in nature.

Dimethylpropiothetin

CAS: 7314-30-9

Dimethylpropiothetin (DMPT) is a chemical compound that inhibits the activity of an enzyme complex known as fatty acid synthase. It also has a number of biochemical properties, such as inhibition of adenine nucleotide biosynthesis and inhibition of lipid synthesis. DMPT's inhibitory effects are likely due to its ability to bind with the active site of the fatty acid synthase enzyme complex. This binding prevents the formation of acyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA, which are necessary for the production of long-chain fatty acids. The target gene expression is regulated by calcium pantothenate and chlorophyll A., which can stimulate transcriptional activation or repression in bacteria. Dimethylpropiothetin has been shown to be effective against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, an antibiotic resistant bacterium.
