cystine

L-Cystine (Cystine Acid) is not considered one of the 20 amino acids, L-Cystine (Cystine Acid) is a sulfur-containing derivative obtained from oxidation of cysteine amino acid thiol side chains. It functions as an antioxidant and protects tissues against radiation and pollution, slowing the aging process. It also aids protein synthesis. L-Cystine (Cystine Acid) is abundant in many proteins of skeletal tissues and skin, and found in insulin and digestive enzymes chromotrypsinogen A, papain, and trypsinogen.

2-Aminoethanethiol (Cysteamine) is a Cystine Depleting Agent. The mechanism of action of cysteamine is as a Cystine Disulfide Reduction.

L-Cystine, hydrochloride is a useful organic compound for research related to life sciences. The catalog number is T124989 and the CAS number is 34760-60-6.

Homocystine is the double-bonded form of homocysteine, but it occurs only transiently before being converted to the harmless cystathionine via a vitamin B6-dependent enzyme. Increasing evidence supports a role for an elevation of homocysteine in schizophr

DL-Homocystine is a mutagen secreted by F. nucleatum.

Sterigmatocystine is an inhibitor of G1 Phase and DNA synthesis and is used to inhibit p21 activity. Sterigmatocystine is a precursor of aflatoxins and a mycotoxin produced by common mold strains from Aspergillus versicolor.

L-Cysteine S-sulfate (S-Sulfo-L-cysteine) is an effective N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) glutamatergic receptors agonist. L-Cysteine S-sulfate is the substrate for cystine lyase [1].

Tiopronin (Acadione), a sulfhydryl acylated derivative of glycine, leads to a reduction in urinary cystine concentration and subsequently reduces cystine stone formation.

Thiotaurine is a metabolite of Cystine. It serves as a sulfur donor and may participate in the activation of neutrophils and leukocyte energy metabolism by regulating the activity of GAPDH. Additionally, Thiotaurine is a potential anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory agent.
