Lanthionine ketimine (34-dihydro-2H-13-thiazine-35-dicarboxylic acid) is a naturally occurring sulfur amino acid metabolite found in the mammalian brain and central nervous system (CNS). Synthetic derivatives of lanthionine ketimine have been documented to possess various biological activities suggesting that the molecules are plausible lead candidates for the treatment of neurodegenerative disease.
