S-Benzyl-L-cysteine

Description:

S-Benzyl-L-cysteine is a sulfur-containing amino acid derivative characterized by the presence of a benzyl group attached to the sulfur atom of the cysteine backbone. This compound is notable for its potential biological activities, including antioxidant properties, which may contribute to its role in various biochemical processes. S-Benzyl-L-cysteine is soluble in polar solvents, reflecting the hydrophilic nature of the amino acid structure, while the benzyl group imparts some hydrophobic characteristics. The compound can participate in redox reactions due to the thiol (-SH) group, making it relevant in studies related to cellular redox balance and detoxification pathways. Additionally, it may serve as a precursor for the synthesis of other bioactive compounds. Its applications extend to research in pharmacology and biochemistry, particularly in exploring mechanisms of action related to oxidative stress and cellular signaling. As with many amino acid derivatives, S-Benzyl-L-cysteine's stability and reactivity can be influenced by environmental factors such as pH and temperature.

S-Benzyl-L-cysteine is a sulfhydryl compound that can be used to synthesize free radical scavengers. It can be used as a model protein to study the formation of acid in polymer films and its effect on the stability of the film. S-Benzyl-L-cysteine also reacts with trifluoroacetic acid in human serum, forming an acid conjugate. This conjugate is then excreted by the kidneys into urine, which has been shown to have a physiological function. The pH profile and optimum pH for S-benzyl-L-cysteine are 7.4 and 8 respectively. S-benzyl-L-cysteine has been shown to chelate metal ions and inhibit cell growth in cell culture studies with rat liver microsomes. Biochemical properties include inhibition of lipid peroxidation, antioxidant activity, and inhibition of hepatic drug metabolizing enzymes such as cytochrome
