A strong antioxidant and a cysteine prodrug. OTC, a 5-oxoproline analog, is metabolized by 5-oxoprolinase and converted to cysteine, the rate-limiting amino acid for glutathione synthesis. It may therefore be useful in restoring depleted glutathione stores in HIV-1-infected persons, which may in turn inhibit the progression of HIV disease. OTC may be inserted in place of Pyr. The chemical behaviour of OTC was studied by MacLaren. OTC was employed in the total synthesis of Latrunculin A.
