L-Carnitine
Synonym(s): (R)-Carnitine; Levocarnitine
- CAS No.: 541-15-1
- Formula:C7H15NO3
- Molecular Weight:161.20
IUPAC Name: (R)-3-hydroxy-4-(trimethylammonio)butanoate
InChIKey: PHIQHXFUZVPYII-ZCFIWIBFSA-N
SMILES: C[N+](C)(C)C[C@H](O)CC([O-])=O
Biological Activity: L-Carnitine ((R)-Carnitine), a highly polar, small zwitterion, is an essential co-factor for the mitochondrial β-oxidation pathway. L-Carnitine functions to transport long chain fatty acyl-CoAs into the mitochondria for degradation by β-oxidation. L-Carnitine is an antioxidant. L-Carnitine can ameliorate metabolic imbalances in many inborn errors of metabolism[1][2][3].
