Aminoacetone (hydrochloride)

Aminoacetone is a threonine and glycine catabolite that can be converted to methylglyoxal by amine oxidases. It has been identified as one of several endogenous sources of methylglyoxal found in the plasma of diabetes patients. As a pro-oxidant, 0.10-5 mM aminoacetone can induce cell death in RINm5f pancreatic beta-cells. Aminoacetone is used as a growth substrate for Pseudomonas.Formal Name: 1-amino-2-propanone, monohydrochloride. CAS Number: 7737-17-9. Synonyms: 1-Amino-2-propanone. Molecular Formula: C3H7NO . HCl.
