N-{[(carboxymethyl)sulfanyl]acetyl}-L-homocysteine

Description:

N-{[(Carboxymethyl)sulfanyl]acetyl}-L-homocysteine is a derivative of homocysteine, an amino acid that plays a crucial role in various metabolic processes, particularly in the synthesis of proteins and the metabolism of sulfur-containing compounds. This compound features a carboxymethyl sulfanyl group, which introduces a functional thiol group that can participate in redox reactions and may influence the compound's reactivity and biological activity. The acetyl group enhances its solubility and stability, making it more bioavailable. As a homocysteine derivative, it may be involved in cellular signaling and could have implications in health, particularly concerning cardiovascular diseases and metabolic disorders. The presence of both carboxymethyl and acetyl functionalities suggests potential applications in biochemistry and pharmaceuticals, particularly in drug design or as a biochemical probe. Overall, this compound exemplifies the complexity of amino acid derivatives and their potential roles in biological systems.
