6-Maleimidocaproic acid (2-nitro-4-sulfo) phenyl ester sodium salt is a naturally occurring amino acid and a key component of energy production. It plays an important role in metabolism, cell growth and development, and immune function. It is used as a reagent in organic synthesis and as a substrate for the synthesis of other compounds. In addition, it is employed in the study of enzyme kinetics, as a model for protein folding, and as an inhibitor of the enzyme threonine dehydrogenase. Moreover, it acts as an intermediate in the conversion of malonate to malonate-CoA, which is then used in the synthesis of fatty acids. It is also involved in the synthesis of other metabolic intermediates, such as acetyl-CoA. Lastly, the compound has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, and increases the production of nitric oxide.
