β-Alanine (beta-alanine) is a naturally occurring beta amino acid, which is an amino acid in which the amino group is attached to the β-carbon (i.e. the carbon two carbon atoms away from the carboxylate group) instead of the more usual α-carbon for alanine (α-alanine). The IUPAC name for β-alanine is 3-aminopropanoic acid.
Aminopropionic acid (C3H7NO2, molar mass 89.093 g/mol) may refer to: 2-Aminopropionic acid, or alanine; 3-Aminopropionic acid, or β-alanine
Alanine is an aliphatic amino acid, because the side-chain connected to the α-carbon atom is a methyl group (-CH 3). Alanine is the simplest α-amino acid after glycine . The methyl side-chain of alanine is non-reactive and is therefore hardly ever directly involved in protein function. [ 12 ]
Amino acids with the structure NH + 3 −CXY−CXY−CO − 2, such as β-alanine, a component of carnosine and a few other peptides, are β-amino acids. Ones with the structure NH + 3 −CXY−CXY−CXY−CO − 2 are γ-amino acids, and so on, where X and Y are two substituents (one of which is normally H). [7]
Propionic acid (/ p r oʊ p i ˈ ɒ n ɪ k /, from the Greek words πρῶτος : prōtos, meaning "first", and πίων : píōn, meaning "fat"; also known as propanoic acid) is a naturally occurring carboxylic acid with chemical formula CH 3 CH 2 CO 2 H. It is a liquid with a pungent and unpleasant smell somewhat resembling body odor. The ...
