Application

DL-Histidine has been used to study the fouling behaviour of polyethersulfone ultrafiltration membranes made with different PVP (polyvinylpyrrolidone).
DL-Histidine is the mixed isomer of D- and L-histidine. DL-Histidine may be used to evaluate the efficiency of amino acid chiral ligand exchange media and systems and in running buffers for capillary electrophoresis.

Biochem/physiol Actions

L-Histidine is involved in the one-carbon unit metabolism. It is associated with protein methylation. L-Histidine is a part of hemoglobin structure and function. L-Histidine is a component of dipeptides with antioxidative property. Histidine serves as a precursor for the formation of histamine, which is associated with allergic responses. Urocanic acid, an immune response modulator in skin is also biosynthesised from histidine.

The cadherins Fat and Dachsous regulate cell polarity and proliferation via their heterophilic interactions at intercellular junctions. Their ectodomains are unusually large because of repetitive extracellular cadherin (EC) domains, which raises the question of how they fit in regular intercellular
