Summary
Tryptamine is a monoamine alkaloid found in animals, plants and fungi.[citation needed] It contains an indole ring structure, and is structurally similar to the amino acid tryptophan, from which the name derives. Tryptamine is found in trace amounts in the brains of mammals and is hypothesized to play a role as a neuromodulator or neurotransmitter.
