Product Description: Aminomalonic acid (Standard) is the analytical standard of Aminomalonic acid. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Aminomalonic acid is an amino endogenous metabolite, acts as a strong inhibitor of L-asparagine synthetase from Leukemia 5178Y/AR (Ki= 0.0023 M) and mouse pancreas (Ki= 0.0015 M) in vitro. Aminomalonic acid is a potential biomarker to discriminate between different stages of melanoma metastasis[1][2][3].
