Alanine,3-[(carboxycarbonyl)amino]-

Description:
Alanine, 3-[(carboxycarbonyl)amino]-, also known as L-aspartic acid, is an amino acid characterized by its structure, which includes both an amino group and a carboxyl group, making it a polar, hydrophilic molecule. It is a non-essential amino acid, meaning that it can be synthesized by the body. The presence of the carboxycarbonyl group contributes to its acidic properties, allowing it to participate in various biochemical reactions, particularly in protein synthesis and metabolism. This compound is typically found in its zwitterionic form at physiological pH, where it carries both a positive and a negative charge. Alanine plays a crucial role in the biosynthesis of proteins and is involved in energy production and the regulation of blood sugar levels. It is also a precursor for the synthesis of neurotransmitters and other important biomolecules. Due to its biological significance, alanine is widely studied in fields such as biochemistry, nutrition, and pharmacology.
