Figure 1

Structural analogy between creatine and beta-guanidinopropionic acid. Legend: Creatine (a) and beta-guanidinopropionic acid (b) have an identical molecular formula (C4H9N3O2), but creatine is methylated on its tertiary nitrogen, while in beta-guanidinopropionic acid, the methyl group is positioned in the carbon chain [16].
