| White crystal or crystal powder, easily soluble in water, difficult to dissolve in methanol and ethanol. In the human body, citrulline is a non protein amino acid that does not participate in protein synthesis but has the ability to form peptide bonds. It was previously believed to only exist as an intermediate product in the ornithine urea cycle. | |||||||||
