Phenylalanine betaine is a naturally occurring amino acid that is found in food. Phenylalanine betaines are used as a model system for studying the effects of hydroxyl groups on protein structures and functions. It can be found in urine samples, which indicates its presence in the body. The molecular modeling of phenylalanine betaine has shown that it can function both as an amino acid and a beta-hydroxy acid. Its inhibition constant is 3.5uM, which indicates that it may have an antibacterial activity.
