(±)-Carnitine hydrochloride (CAS 461-05-2)
QUICK LINKS
(±)-Carnitine hydrochloride plays a role in the transport of fatty acids into the mitochondria for energy production. It functions by facilitating the entry of long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondrial matrix, where they undergo beta-oxidation to generate ATP. (±)-Carnitine Hydrochloride acts as a carrier molecule, binding to fatty acids and transporting them across the mitochondrial membrane. Once inside the mitochondria, (±)-Carnitine hydrochloride releases the fatty acids, allowing them to undergo oxidation and produce energy. This process is necessary for the metabolism of fatty acids and the production of cellular energy. By facilitating the transport of fatty acids, (±)-Carnitine hydrochloride contributes to the overall energy balance within the cell, supporting various metabolic processes. Its role in fatty acid metabolism may be an important component in cellular energy production and metabolic regulation.
