| Product Description |
Nε-trimethyllysine (TML) is a non-protein amino acid which takes part in the biosynthesis of carnitine. In mammals, the breakdown of endogenous proteins containing TML residues is a starting point for carnitine biosynthesis. Nε,Nε,Nε-Trimethyllysine hydrochloride is primarly used in lysine methylation modification assays and purifications. |
