Description

Functions as a precursor of histamine by action of histidine decarboxylase. L-Histidine, MP Biomedicals is an essential amino acid with a basic side chain that contains an imidazole group. It is hydrophilic in character. It is generally used in media prep

Histidine is biosynthesized from ATP, 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate (PRPP), and glutamine. In turn, histidine is degraded to glutamate by histidase, urocanase, and imidazolonepropionase via the formation of urocanate, 4-imidazolone 5-propionate, and N-formiminoglutamate.

  • Has been used to study cultures of the human T-lymphoblastic leukemia cell line MOLT-4 to study modulation of apoptosis
  • Has been shown to enhance the biosynthesis of lovastatin by cultured Aspergillus terreus
  • Utilized as a single nitrogen source to probe swarming in Pseudomonas aeruginosa on agar
