Disease relevance of Vanillylamine

Phylogenetic analysis of capsaicin degraders revealed them to be strains of Variovorax and Ralstonia, whereas the vanillylamine degraders were strains of Pseudomonas and Variovorax [1].

High impact information on Vanillylamine

The agarose-linked vanillylamine bound a ca. 33.5-kDa protein band with capsaicin-inhibited NADH activity from total defined culture media conditioned by growth of HeLa cells [2].
Capsaicin, a decylenic acid amide of vanillylamine that selectively stimulates nerve endings of unmyelinated fibers (C-fibers), was injected into the left pulmonary artery in 5-ml boluses [3].
This route to vanillin has biotechnological potential as the widely available principle of red pepper, capsaicin, can be hydrolyzed enzymatically to vanillylamine [4].
