Biological context of S-Methylcysteine

 

Anatomical context of S-Methylcysteine

  • The first patient was a "conjugator" with normal glutathone transferase activity, whereas this activity was undetectable in the erythrocytes of the second patient, who consequently had higher concentrations of S-methylcysteine adduct in albumin (149 v 91 nmol/g protein) and in globin (77 v 30 nmol/g protein) [14].
  • N-delta-acetylornithine and S-methylcysteine in blood plasma [15].
