MeSH definition : A biogenic polyamine formed from spermidine. It is found in a wide variety of organisms
and tissues and is an essential growth factor in some bacteria. It is found as a polycation
at all pH values. Spermine is associated with nucleic acids, particularly in viruses,
and is thought to stabilize the helical structure.;
MeSH CAS label : 1,4-Butanediamine, N,N'-bis(3-aminopropyl)-;
MeSH Related Number : 71-44-3 (Spermine);
Registry Number MeSH : 71-44-3;
