Material Notes | a biogenic polyamine formed from spermidine. it is found in a wide variety of organisms and tissues and is an essential growth factor in some bacteria. it is found as a polycation at all ph values. spermine is associated with nucleic acids, particularly in viruses, and is thought to stabilize the helical structure. Occurs as phosphate in ox pancreas, yeast and meat products Spermine is a polyamine involved in cellular metabolism found in all eukaryotic cells. Formed from spermidine, it is found in a wide variety of organisms and tissues and is an essential growth factor in some bacteria. It is found as a polycation at physiological pH. Spermine is associated with nucleic acids and is thought to stabilize helical structure, in particular, in viruses. (Wikipedia) |
