• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: Trans-aconitic acid is a plant metabolite that can be found in wine, honey, and other foods. It is also produced by the action of yeast on sugars and amino acids. Trans-aconitic acid is used as an analytical reagent in chromatographic analysis due to its high solubility in organic solvents. The biological function of trans-aconitic acid has not yet been determined, but it has been hypothesized that it may be involved in energy metabolism or mitochondrial membrane potential. Trans-aconitic acid binds to nuclear DNA, which could play a role in gene expression or transcriptional regulation. It also inhibits the activity of enzymes such as p-hydroxybenzoic acid form (PHBA) and zirconium oxide (ZrO). Trans-aconitic acid has been shown to inhibit the enzyme form of PHBA with an IC50 value of 0.5 mM.
