(E)-4-Aminocinnamic Acid is a chemical compound that is synthesized by the enzyme 4-aminobutyryl-CoA synthase. It is photochemically active, which means it can be used to make polymer films. The film can be made by adding (E)-4-aminocinnamic acid to a solution of monomers and then exposing it to UV light. (E)-4-Aminocinnamic Acid has an organic solvent and hydrogen bond donor, meaning that it will dissolve in water and form hydrogen bonds with other molecules. This property makes it useful for making polymers that are transparent and flexible. The hydrogen bonding also helps stabilize the polymer film when subjected to heat or acid catalysts. The catalyst can be hydrochloric acid, for example. Genetic control of (E)-4-aminocinnamic Acid synthesis is regulated by the strain of microorganism that produces it as well as carbon sources such as butyric
