Description

Ricinine is a toxic compound that is found in the castor plant. Ricinine has a pharmacokinetic profile, which is characterized by a long half-life and low clearance. Ricinine can be used as an analytical method to detect other compounds with similar properties and may be used in a surface methodology to study the interaction between ricinine and various matrices. Ricinine also has metabolic effects on energy metabolism, including the conversion of glucose into pyruvate, which produces energy for the cell's metabolic processes. Ricinine can also inhibit the activity of enzymes that are involved in amino acid synthesis or protein synthesis. Ricinine is an amide molecule with two nitrogen atoms at its terminal end. It has been detected using LC-MS/MS methods with linear calibration curves to evaluate its presence in model organisms such as yeast and Arabidopsis thaliana.
