Dimethylpropiothetin hydrochloride

Dimethylpropiothetin hydrochloride (s, s-Dimethyl-β-propionic acid thetine) is the hydrochloride form of dimethylpropiothetin. Dimethylpropiothetin can be isolated in marine algae, and is a precursor to dimethylsulfide (DMS) . Dimethylpropiothetin is involved in osmoregulation in Hymenomonas carterae[1].
