Description

Biopterin (also known as L-erythro-biopterin or 6-Biopterin) is an oxidation product of tetrahydrobiopterin. Bioptrrin is an endogenous enzyme cofactor and its accumulation serves as markers of Parkinson's disease, Hyperphenylalaninemia and in addition, it can serve as a non-invasive biomarker for cancer.
