Computer artwork of lysine (C6. H14. N2. O2), one of the eight essential amino acids. It cannot be produced by the human body and must be consumed in its entirety from the diet. Lysine plays a particularly important role in the immune system. It is involved in the development of antibodies and has important antiviral properties. Atoms are represented as spheres and are colour-coded: carbon (black), hydrogen (white), nitrogen (blue) and oxygen (red). Illustration.
