Pterin
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Pterin is a pteridine with antibacterial activity. Pterin binds to the Fe2+ active site via its carbonyl group, reducing the oxygen activation energy barrier in hydroxylases. Pterin participates in metabolic redox processes. Pterin can be used in research related to cancer, vitiligo, bacterial infections, phenylketonuria, Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia and depression.
