Member	Definition	Role
alanopine	An amino dicarboxylic acid that is 2,2'-iminodiacetic acid substituted by methyl groups at positions 2 and 2'.	2,2'-iminodipropanoic acid
chrysopine	A spiroketal and delta-lactone resulting from the formal condensation of the carboxy group of L-glutamine with the anomeric hydroxy group of D-fructose and substitution of the 1-hydroxy group of the fructose by the alpha-amino group of the glutamine. It is found in crown gall tumours induced in chrysanthemums by Agrobacterium tumefaciens.	chrysopine
mannopine	A hexitol derivative that is D-mannitol in which the hydroxy group at position 1 is replaced by the alpha-amino group of L-glutamine. It is produced in crown gall tumours induced in a wide range of dicotyledenous plants by Agrobacterium tumefaciens.	mannopine
nopaline	An amino acid opine resulting from the formal reductive condensation of the amino group of L-arginine with the keto group of 2-oxopentanedioic acid.	D-nopaline
octopine	The (1R)-1-carboxyethyl derivative of L-arginine. It is a metabolite released by plant tumours.	D-octopine dizwitterion; D-octopine
saccharopine	The N(6)-(1,3-dicarboxypropan-1-yl) derivative of L-lysine.	L-saccharopine
