Descripción

Descripción general

Ectoine, also known as 4,5,6-tetrahydro-2-methyl-4-pyrimidinecarboxylic acid, is a zwitterionic amino acid derivative that is a compatible osmoprotectant solute produced in certain aerobic, chemoheterotrophic, and halophilic bacteria to protect against osmotic stress, radiation, and other unfavorable environmental conditions.

Aplicación

The practical applications of ectoine include enzyme stabilization, anti-inflammatory treatment, neurodegenerative disease prevention, and other therapeutic applications.

Acciones bioquímicas o fisiológicas

Ectoine works as an enzyme stabilizer by maintaining hydration and reducing enzyme denaturation due to temperature changes. It also increases the stability of double-stranded DNA at high temperatures.
