    Product Description

    L-Albizziin is a non-proteinogenic amino acid and metabolite of 5-aminouracil.1 It is formed from 5-aminouracil via a 5-amino-5,6-dihydrouracil intermediate by dihydropyrimidinase.1 L-Albizziin inhibits 4-methyleneglutaminase (IC50 = 20 mM for the peanut enzyme).2

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
