L-Methionyl-L-methionyl-L-methionine

Description:

L-Methionyl-L-methionyl-L-methionine, also known as a tripeptide composed of three L-methionine amino acids, is a sulfur-containing amino acid derivative. It is characterized by its role in protein synthesis and its involvement in various metabolic processes. Methionine is an essential amino acid, meaning it must be obtained through the diet, and it plays a crucial role in the initiation of protein synthesis. The presence of sulfur in its structure contributes to its unique properties, including its ability to form disulfide bonds, which are important for the stability and structure of proteins. This tripeptide may exhibit antioxidant properties and is involved in the methylation process, which is vital for cellular function and regulation. Additionally, it can influence the synthesis of other important biomolecules, such as cysteine and taurine. While specific applications of L-Methionyl-L-methionyl-L-methionine may vary, it is generally studied in the context of nutrition, biochemistry, and potential therapeutic uses.

H-Met-Met-Met-OH

CAS: 14486-15-8

H-Met-Met-Met-OH is a synthetic, antifungal drug that inhibits the synthesis of fatty acids. It has been shown to inhibit the growth of E coli K-12, which is responsible for the production of toxic substances in the intestine. H-Met-Met-Met-OH inhibits peptidase activity and fatty acid synthesis by competing with other substrates for uptake into the cell. H-Met-Met-Met-OH also inhibits sugar transport, leading to a decrease in glycolysis and energy production. The drug has been used in clinical trials against Candida albicans and Cryptococcus neoformans.
