5-HTP structure

5 - Hydroxytrophan for short is 5-HTP, Chemical nomenclature:5-hydroxyl-3-indolyl-α-amino propionic acid.Formula weight:220.23. Its chemical structure is as follows:


Internal metabolic processes of 5-HTP

5-HTP can be transformed into Serotonin by decarboxylation in internal. Serotonin is a Nerve effector responsible for the transmission of intercellular signals. Its conversion internal is that the precursor of 5-HTP (HTrp) is tryptophan ( Trp),Trp catalytic synthesis 5-HTP by TPH(TH), 5-HTP forms 5-hydroxytryptamine(5HT) by decarboxylase(AAAD) effect.5-HTP forms n-acetyl-serotonin (NAS) by the action of n-acetylinvertase (NAT) ,N-acetyl-5HT forms melatonin(Mel) by hydroxyl indole Oxymethyl Invertase(HIOMT) effect. Besides 5-HTP can transform 5-Methoxytryptophan(5-MTrp) through action of HIOMT and 5-HTP can transform 5-methoxyl indole acetic acid(MIAA)5-Methoxytryptamine alcohol(MT-PL)

 

5-HTP is classified as a pharmaceutical ingredient in some countries. In the United States, the United Kingdom and Canada, 5-HTP is marketed as a dietary supplement (health supplement). 5-HTP is one of our main products, and the sales network is spread all over the world!
