Beschreibung

Methyl 5-aminosalicylate is a molecule that belongs to the class of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. It is used for the treatment of bowel diseases and has been shown to inhibit inflammation in neurodegenerative diseases. Methyl 5-aminosalicylate can be converted from salicylic acid by aminopropionase, which converts choline into methylmalonyl CoA. The molecule is cytotoxic and has been shown to activate microglial cells in vitro. Methyl 5-aminosalicylate is also a dietary carbon source for some organisms.

An example of an assay for methyl 5-aminosalicylate is diazonium salt, which reacts with glycosidic bonds to form diazo compounds. These compounds are then reacted with the carbon source (methyl 5-aminosalicylate) to produce an intensely coloured product that can be read spectrophotometrically at 540
