Description | Carnosine, also known as b-alanylhistidine or ignotine, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as hybrid peptides. Hybrid peptides are compounds containing at least two different types of amino acids (alpha, beta, gamma, delta) linked to each other through a peptide bond. Carnosine exists as a solid, possibly soluble (in water), and a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa) molecule. Carnosine exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. Carnosine is a potentially toxic compound. Carnosine has been found to be associated with several diseases known as eosinophilic esophagitis, crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and alzheimer's disease; also carnosine has been linked to the inborn metabolic disorders including carnosinuria. |
