Description

Ll-2,6-diaminopimelic acid is a trifunctional amino acid that can be synthesized in the human body or taken as a dietary supplement. Ll-2,6-diaminopimelic acid is used to treat infectious diseases caused by bacteria and fungi. Ll-2,6-diaminopimelic acid inhibits protein synthesis by acting on the ribosome and blocking the formation of peptide bonds between amino acids. It also inhibits fatty acid synthesis and the production of hydroxyl radicals from hydrogen peroxide. Ll-2,6-diaminopimelic acid binds to toll-like receptors on the surface of certain cells and can activate them to produce antimicrobial agents such as cytokines and chemokines. Ll-2,6-diaminopimelic acid has been shown to inhibit the growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis when incubated with human monocytic cell
