Product Information
Name:Boc-L-cysteine
Synonyms:
- Boc-L-Cys-OH
Brand:Biosynth
Description:Boc-L-cysteine is a precursor of L-cysteine, which is the rate-limiting amino acid in the production of glutathione. It is obtained by incubating L-cysteine with allyl bromide and hydrochloric acid. Boc-L-cysteine can be reversibly converted to its conjugate (Boc) and back again. The conversion from Boc to Boc-L-cysteine is catalyzed by an enzyme called fatty acid synthase. The conversion from Boc to L-cysteine is catalyzed by thiolase, which converts it to cystathionine. Analysis of this product can be done using magnetic resonance spectroscopy and chromatography.
