Descripción

General description

5-Methyl-L-tryptophan, also known as 5-Methyltryptophan, represents the enantiomer of 5-methyl-D-tryptophan. Functioning as an intermediate in the biosynthesis of the amino acid tryptophan, it acts as a precursor to essential cofactors like nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP). Additionally, 5-Methyl-L-tryptophan plays a role in numerous biochemical reactions. Notably, this compound exhibits anticarcinogenic properties, potentially attributed to its influence on gene expression and growth regulation.

We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of the 12 Principles of Green Chemistry. 5-Methyl-L-tryptophan is a tryptophan derivative with a methyl group at position 5 of the indole ring. This tryptophan derivative was produced using a method which produces less waste than traditional methods. Click here for more information.
