Product Information
- L-Methionyl-L-Methionine
Met-Met is a dipeptide that is synthesized from the amino acids methionine and methyltetrahydrofolate. It is used in the synthesis of peptides and biochemicals, as well as in pharmacological treatments for diseases including bacterial infections. Met-Met has significant interactions with dopamine, catechol-o-methyltransferase, and energy metabolism. The enzyme catechol-o-methyltransferase catalyzes the conversion of dopamine to 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC), which may lead to a decrease in dopamine levels. Met-Met also inhibits the metabolism of catecholamines, leading to an increase in cellular levels of catecholamines such as dopamine and norepinephrine. This inhibition may be responsible for metabolic disorders such as obesity or low body mass index (BMI)
