Metabolism of Sulphur-Containing Amino Acids | Biochemistry
In this article we will discuss about the metabolism of sulphur-containing amino acids. There are 3 sulphur-containing amino acids, methionine, cysteine and cystine, but since the last two are very easily interconvertible by oxidation-reduction, they may be taken as one. Methionine is an essential amino acid — for rat as well as man - while cysteine is not. However, when [...]
