Photographic Print : Alliin molecule
Photo Prints from Science Photo Library
Alliin molecule
Alliin. Computer model of a molecule of alliin (S-allylcysteine sulphoxide, C6. H11. N. O3. S), an odourless garlic compound. Atoms are colour-coded: carbon is dark blue; nitrogen, light blue; sulphur, yellow; oxygen, red; hydrogen, white. Alliin is a chemically modified form of the amino acid cysteine. When garlic is crushed or cut, it is converted by the enzyme alliinase to allicin, which is the main component of garlics strong odour. Allicin is thought to have therapeutic effects including antibacterial, antioxidant and cholesterol-reducing properties

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of the Alliin molecule, a chemically modified form of cysteine found in garlic. The computer-generated model vividly depicts the molecular structure, with each atom color-coded for clarity. Carbon appears as a deep blue hue, nitrogen as light blue, sulphur as yellow, oxygen as red, and hydrogen as white. Alliin is an odorless compound that becomes transformed into allicin when garlic is crushed or cut by the enzyme alliinase. Allicin is responsible for garlic's pungent aroma and possesses various therapeutic properties such as antibacterial effects, antioxidant capabilities, and cholesterol-reducing potential. The image not only highlights the organic nature of this beneficial compound but also emphasizes its significance in health care and nutrition. With its anti-cancer attributes and nutrient-rich composition, Alliin plays a crucial role in promoting overall well-being. Displayed against a clean background to accentuate its molecular structure, this print serves as a reminder of the wonders that biochemistry holds within our natural world. It encapsulates both scientific curiosity and aesthetic appeal while shedding light on the remarkable compounds present in everyday ingredients like garlic. This stunning visual representation invites contemplation about how chemistry intertwines with our lives and underscores the importance of understanding these molecules for their potential applications in medicine and beyond.
