2-Amino-4- (2-aminophenyl) -4-oxobutanoic acid - CAS 343-65-7

2-Amino-4- (2-aminophenyl) -4-oxobutanoic acid (3-Anthraniloylalanine) is a ketone and amino acid derivative with diverse biological functions, including vasodilatory, immunoregulatory, and neuromodulatory activities. It is a precursor for niacin and its aberrant production is linked to neurological disease-related cognitive deficits and depressive symptoms.
