Description

DL-Lysine (Lysine) is an α-amino acid that is used in the biosynthesis of proteins.


Lysine is a diamino acid that is caproic (hexanoic) acid bearing two amino substituents at positions 2 and 6. It has a role as a Daphnia magna metabolite. It is an alpha-amino acid, a diamino acid and a polar amino acid. It contains a 4-aminobutyl group. It derives from a hexanoic acid. It is a conjugate base of a lysinium(1+). It is a conjugate acid of a lysinate.
