Compound | Description |
hydronium ion | |
Carbon Dioxide | A colorless, odorless gas that can be formed by the body and is necessary for the respiration cycle of plants and animals. |
Cadaverine | A foul-smelling diamine formed by bacterial decarboxylation of lysine. |
5'-methylthioadenosine | structure |
Spermidine | A polyamine formed from putrescine. It is found in almost all tissues in association with nucleic acids. It is found as a cation at all pH values, and is thought to help stabilize some membranes and nucleic acid structures. It is a precursor of spermine. |
