Hawkinsin is a urinary metabolite from the rare disorder of tyrosine metabolism, known as Hawkinsinuria; Also, it is derived from 4-Hydroxyphenylacetic Acid (H949060), which is a compound present in olive oil. An important fine chemical intermediate with broad prospects for application development. | [Definition]
ChEBI: Hawkinsin is a cysteine derivative that is cysteine in which the thiol group is substituted by a [2-(carboxymethyl)-2,5-dihydroxycyclohex-3-en-1-yl]sulfanediyl group. Hawkinsinuria is an inherited disorder which is characterized by the inability to break down the amino acid tyrosine. This results in the finding of certain metabolites in the urine, such as hawkinsin. It has a role as a biomarker and a human urinary metabolite. It is a dicarboxylic acid, a cysteine derivative, a cycloalkene, a diol, a tertiary allylic alcohol and a secondary allylic alcohol. |
