Product Information
Name:L-Cysteine
Synonyms:
- (R)-2-Amino-3-mercaptopropionic acid
Brand:Biosynth
Description:L-Cysteine is a non-essential amino acid that is used in biochemical research and has been shown to inhibit the activity of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. It also regulates the response of cells to toll-like receptor ligands by inhibiting the production of inflammatory mediators. L-Cysteine binds to a sequence called response element, which is found in many prokaryotic genes, and inhibits protein oxidation. L-Cysteine has an inhibitory effect on single-stranded RNA and can act as a rate constant for protein synthesis. L-Cysteine is an amino acid that contains sulfur and can be found in proteins with thiol groups. The cysteine residues in proteins are coordinated geometrically by a zinc ion (Zn2+) or iron ion (Fe3+). This coordination geometry affects the biological properties of these proteins.
