产品介绍  | Hydroxyproline, a non-essential amino   acid derived from proline, with no known therapeutic use. Hydroxproline is   used as a major component of structural protiens such as collagen, connective   tissues, plant cell walls, tendons and ligaments and provides skin   elasticity. Vitiman C is required for the conversion process from proline to   hydroxyproline, a deficincy in vitiman C can lead to defects in collagen   synthesis, thus, resulting in easy bruising, internal bleeding, breakdown of   connective tissue of the ligaments and tendons, and increased risk to blood   vessel damage. An unusual feature of this amino acid is that, it is not   incorporated into collagen during biosynthesis at the ribosomal level, but is   formed from proline by a posttranslational modification by an enzymatic   hydroxylation reaction.        SWISS:    N/A        CAS:    51-35-4        Important   Note:    This product as supplied is intended for research use only, not for use in   human, therapeutic or diagnostic applications.   |
