L-Lathyrine(Cat No.:M052605) is a natural amino acid found primarily in the seeds of Lathyrus species, such as chickling peas or grass peas. It is chemically characterized as a non-protein amino acid. L-Lathyrine has garnered interest due to its association with the neurological disorder lathyrism when consumed in large quantities over time. This condition affects motor neurons and can lead to paralysis. The compound is structurally similar to glutamate, which suggests it may interfere with normal neurotransmission.
