Cysteine, methyl ester, hydrochloride (1:1)

Description:
Cysteine, methyl ester, hydrochloride (1:1) is a derivative of the amino acid cysteine, characterized by the presence of a methyl ester group and a hydrochloride salt form. This compound is typically a white to off-white crystalline powder, soluble in water due to the presence of the hydrochloride, which enhances its solubility compared to the free amino acid. Cysteine itself is a sulfur-containing amino acid that plays a crucial role in protein synthesis and is involved in various metabolic processes. The methyl ester form can influence its reactivity and bioavailability, making it useful in biochemical applications, including as a building block in peptide synthesis and in studies related to redox biology. Additionally, cysteine derivatives are often explored for their antioxidant properties and potential therapeutic applications. As with many amino acid derivatives, care should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose risks if ingested or improperly managed.
