Desmosine
An amino acid found only in elastin, the protein that makes skin, lungs and arteries elastic: it forms when four lysines join into a ring, and it acts as a bridge between protein chains. It was described in 1963 in Cambridge by Partridge and colleagues. This family brings together the active ingredient and other impurities.
Did you know?Precisely because it exists only in elastin, its level in urine and blood is studied as a marker of the breakdown of lung elastin, for example in COPD.
