Mecobalamine is a dark red powder.
Mecobalamine is an endogenous coB12 that participates in the one carbon unit cycle and plays an important role in the transmethylation of methionine from homocysteine.
Main Uses:
1. Participate in DNA synthesis: mecobalamine can be converted into deoxyadenylate (dATP), deoxythymidylate (dGTP), deoxycytidylate (dCTP) and deoxycytosine acid (dTTP), which are essential substances for DNA synthesis.
2. Normal function of the nervous system: mecobalamine can activate enzymes in nerve cells, thus promoting the conduction of nerve impulses and the synthesis of neurotransmitters. In addition, mecobalamine can also protect nerve cells from oxidative damage.
3. Participate in energy metabolism: Mecobalamine can help the body convert carbohydrates, fats and proteins into energy and maintain normal energy metabolism.
