Functions as a precursor of histamine by action of histidine decarboxylase. L-Histidine, MP Biomedicals is an essential amino acid with a basic side chain that contains an imidazole group. It is hydrophilic in character. It is generally used in media prep

Histidine is biosynthesized from ATP, 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate (PRPP), and glutamine. In turn, histidine is degraded to glutamate by histidase, urocanase, and imidazolonepropionase via the formation of urocanate, 4-imidazolone 5-propionate, and N-formiminoglutamate.
