| Additional Infomation |
3-Nitro-L-tyrosine is an L-tyrosine derivative with a nitro group attached to the 3-carbon atom of its benzene ring. It is an L-tyrosine derivative, belonging to the non-protein L-α-amino acid family, and is also a 3-nitrotyrosine. It is an enantiomer of 3-nitro-D-tyrosine. 3-Nitrotyrosine is a tyrosine derivative with a nitro group attached to the 3-carbon atom of its benzene ring. It is a product of tyrosine nitration, a reaction mediated by reactive nitrogen species, including peroxynitrite anions and nitrogen dioxide. 3-Nitrotyrosine is a biomarker of cellular damage, inflammation, and nitric oxide (NO) production; it is overproduced in many diseases where oxidative stress plays a key role.
3-Nitro-L-tyrosine (3-Nitrotyrosine) is a modified amino acid and the major product of peroxynitrite reaction with tyrosine. It serves as a stable footprint of peroxynitrite activity and a crucial biomarker for nitrosative stress. The compound inhibits hemodynamic responses to angiotensin II and induces motor neuron apoptosis. It is associated with inflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.
