DETAILS

Description (English)
Analysis Note
diastereometric purity ≥99.0% (HPLC)
Biochem/physiol Actions
Stereoisomer of meso-DAP. meso-DAP is a biosynthetic precursor of the essential amino acid L-lysine1 and component of peptidoglycan in the cell wall of many bacteria2,3,4. As these functions are not observed in mammalian biochemistry, alpha,alpha′-diamino diacids (DADs) are of interest as potential antibiotics with low mammalian toxicity5.
