3-(((2E)-4-Amino-1,4-dioxo-2-buten-1-yl)amino)-L-alanine

N(3)-fumaramoyl-(S)-2,3-diaminopropanoic acid is an L-alanine derivative obtained by formal condensation of the carboxy group of fumaric acid monoamide with the side-chain amino group of 3-amino-L-alanine. It has a role as a bacterial metabolite. It is a primary carboxamide, a secondary carboxamide, an enamide and a L-alanine derivative. It is functionally related to a 3-amino-L-alanine and a fumaric acid. It is a tautomer of a N(3)-fumaramoyl-(S)-2,3-diaminopropanoic acid zwitterion.
