Dehydroalanine (or (alpha)-(beta)-di-dehydroalanine) is an uncommon amino acid found in peptides of microbial origin (an unsaturated amino acid). In Chemistry, an amino acid is a Molecule containing both Amine and Carboxyl Functional groups In Biochemistry, this Peptides (from the Greek πεπτίδια, "small digestibles" are short Polymers formed from the linking in a defined order of α- Amino A microorganism (also spelled micro organism or micro-organism and also called a microbe) is an Organism that is Microscopic (usually In Chemistry, saturation has five different meanings In Physical chemistry, saturation is the point at which a Solution of a substance
Dehydroalanine (DHA) is also found in food protein, e. g. , casein, that have been heated and/or treated with alkali (e;g. , NaOH). These treatments can dehydrate serine in the protein chain. In food DHA frequently alkylates lysine to yield the crosslinking aminoacid lysinoalanine (LAL). LAL itself can be toxic, particularly to the kidney of rats.
Many dehydroalanine-containing peptides are toxic or antibiotic. In modern usage an antibiotic is a Chemotherapeutic agent with activity against Microorganisms such as Bacteria, fungi or Protozoa They are a part of lantibiotics or microcystins. Lantibiotics are a class of Peptide Antibiotics that contain polycyclic Thioether Amino acids as well as the unsaturated amino acids Microcystins are cyclic Nonribosomal peptides produced by Cyanobacteria.
