Alanine (symbol Ala or A), [4] or α-alanine, is an α-amino acid that is used in the biosynthesis of proteins. It contains an amine group and a carboxylic acid group, both attached to the central carbon atom which also carries a methyl group side chain. Consequently it is classified as a nonpolar, aliphatic α-amino acid.

β-Alanine (beta-alanine) is a naturally occurring beta amino acid, which is an amino acid in which the amino group is attached to the β-carbon (i.e. the carbon two carbon atoms away from the carboxylate group) instead of the more usual α-carbon for alanine (α-alanine). The IUPAC name for β-alanine is 3-aminopropanoic acid.
Aminopropionic acid (C3H7NO2, molar mass 89.093 g/mol) may refer to: 2-Aminopropionic acid, or alanine; 3-Aminopropionic acid, or β-alanine

This allows the sources of carbon in food webs to be identified. [3] The isotope effect associated with transamination also makes amino acid nitrogen isotopes a useful tool to study the structure of food webs. Repeated transamination by consumers results in a predictable increase in the abundance of 15 N as amino acids are transferred up food ...
Propionic acid (/ p r oʊ p i ˈ ɒ n ɪ k /, from the Greek words πρῶτος : prōtos, meaning "first", and πίων : píōn, meaning "fat"; also known as propanoic acid) is a naturally occurring carboxylic acid with chemical formula CH 3 CH 2 CO 2 H. It is a liquid with a pungent and unpleasant smell somewhat resembling body odor. The ...
