Lysyllysine(Cat No.:M065212) is a compound formed by the cross-linking of two lysine residues in a protein chain. This process, known as lysyl lysine formation or lysine cross-linking, occurs through enzymatic or non-enzymatic mechanisms. Lysyllysine plays a crucial role in stabilizing the structure of certain proteins, particularly in extracellular matrices like collagen and elastin. These cross-links enhance the strength, stability, and elasticity of connective tissues, contributing to the integrity of skin, tendons, and blood vessels.
