20064-19-1 Usage
Uses
Different sources of media describe the Uses of 20064-19-1 differently. You can refer to the following data:
1. L-Propionyl carnitine has been shown to improve the heart mechanical recovery and other metabolic parameters after ischemia-reperfusion
2. Propionyl-L-carnitine was identified in the drinking water in rats.
3. Propionyl-L-carnitine has been used as a standard in liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS).
General Description
Propionyl-L-carnitine (PLC), a natural odd-carbon-number, endogenous ester of L-carnitine, is found to be present in humans and animals as a minor component compared to L-carnitine (LC) and acetyl-L-carnitine (ALC). It acts as a carrier of long chain acyl groups from activated fatty acids across the inner mitochondrial membrane into the mitochondrial matrix where they undergo β-oxidation to acetyl CoA to obtain usable energy via the citric acid cycle.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Propionyl-L-carnitine (PLC) plays a key role in lipid and carbohydrate metabolism. It provides substrates to the ischemic muscle for energy production and ATP generation. PLC has the potential to treat severe peripheral arterial disease and chronic heart failure. It is present in high abundance in the urine of patients with methylmalonyl-CoA mutase (MUT) deficiency, together with methylmalonic acid. MUT is a mitochondrial enzyme that catalyzes the isomerization of methylmalonyl-CoA to succinyl-CoA.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 20064-19-1 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 2,0,0,6 and 4 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 1 and 9 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 20064-19:
(7*2)+(6*0)+(5*0)+(4*6)+(3*4)+(2*1)+(1*9)=61
61 % 10 = 1
So 20064-19-1 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
