Regulatory evidence across markets

None of the 13 markets tracked here holds an imported rule under the name ALANINE.

That is a statement about this inventory, not about the law: no imported rule is not evidence that a substance is permitted. A rule may exist under a different name, under a CAS or EC number this glossary entry does not carry, or in a dataset not yet imported.

L-Alanine

L-alanine is the L-enantiomer of alanine. It has a role as an EC 4.3.1.15 (diaminopropionate ammonia-lyase) inhibitor and a fundamental metabolite. It is a L-alpha-amino acid, an alanine, a pyruvate family amino acid and a proteinogenic amino acid. It is a conjugate base of a L-alaninium. It is a conjugate acid of a L-alaninate. It is an enantiomer of a D-alanine. It is a tautomer of a L-alanine zwitterion. — ChEBI
