Biological Activity
Mimosinamine (Compound 6e) (0-1 mM; 20-60 min) inhibits partially purified rat liver phenylalanine hydroxylase, partially purified bovine adrenal tyrosine hydroxylase, and crude rat brainstem tryptophan hydroxylase in vitro, with maximum inhibition rates of 58.3%, 66.1% and 35.0% at a concentration of 1.0 mM[1].
Mimosinamine chelates 16% of Fe2+ in cell-free polarographic assays at pH 7.0[1].
