PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
description
Methylguanidine is a guanidine in which one of the amino hydrogens of guanidine itself is substituted by a methyl group. It has a role as a metabolite, an EC 1.14.13.39 (nitric oxide synthase) inhibitor and a uremic toxin. It is a conjugate base of a methylguanidinium.
