Application

Sodium (±)-homocitrate tribasic may be used in studies of formation and function of the iron-molybdenum cofactor (FeMo-co) which contains 7Fe, 9S, Mo, R-homocitrate. FeMo-co is essential for nitrogen fixation by nitrogenous organisms.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Component of the iron-molybdenum cofactor of nitrogenases , essential isomerization of homocitrate via homoaconitate to homoisocitrate, homocitrate accumulation seems to act as a sensor of lysine-pathway distress.

Packaging

Bottomless glass bottle. Contents are inside inserted fused cone.
