Produktinformation

• Name: 2-Mercapto-L-histidine
• Synonyme: (a-S)-a-Amino-2,3-dihydro-2-thioxo-1H-Imidazole-4-propanoic Acid
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: 2-Mercapto-L-histidine is a dietary amino acid that has been shown to be an effective inhibitor of opportunistic fungal growth in vitro. It has been shown to have a second-order rate constant of 0.0037 s−1, which is the same as lysine and arginine. This compound also inhibits the growth of fungi by competing with tryptophan for binding sites on the enzyme histidine ammonia-lyase. 2-Mercapto-L-histidine can also react with nucleophiles such as divalent cations and form covalent bonds, which may lead to its antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive bacteria. 2-Mercapto-L-histidine is not active against Gram negative bacteria or yeast due to structural differences in their cell walls.2-Mercapto-L-histidine has been shown to inhibit glucose metabolism and plasma glucose levels in vitro, but it does not affect insulin secretion or
