Preferred Name

beta-Alanine
Definitions
An amino acid formed in vivo by the degradation of dihydrouracil and carnosine. Since neuronal uptake and neuronal receptor sensitivity to beta-alanine have been demonstrated, the compound may be a false transmitter replacing GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID. A rare genetic disorder, hyper-beta-alaninemia, has been reported.
Synonyms
beta Alanine Hydrochloride
beta-Alanine Hydrochloride

beta-Alanine, Monosodium Salt
beta-Alanine, Calcium Salt (2:1)
Hydrochloride, beta-Alanine
