Exposure to Toxic Heavy Metals Can Influence Homocysteine Metabolism?
Background: Homocysteine is a sulfur amino acid whose metabolism is activated in two pathways: remethylation to methionine, which requires folate and vitamin B12, and transsulfuration to cystathionine, which needs pyridoxal-5’-phosphate.

The importance of methionine metabolism
T helper cells import the amino acid methionine to synthesize new proteins and to provide the methyl groups needed for the methylation of RNA and DNA that drives T cell proliferation and differentiation.

Effect of methionine and cysteine deprivation on growth of different natural isolates of Lactobacillus spp. in chemically defined media [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to determine the ability of natural isolates of lactobacilli from different ecological niches to grow in a chemically defined medium in the presence or absence of sulphur-containing amino acids, methionine and/or cysteine ...

S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) is essential for methyl transfer reactions. All SAM is produced de novo via the methionine cycle. The demethylation of SAM produces S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH), an inhibitor of methyltransferases and the precursor of ...

Methionine-Decorated Near Infrared Fluorescent Probe for Prolonged Tumor Imaging
Methionine (Met) is one of the essential amino acids of which the transport system L is overexpressed in various tumor cells. In this study, a near-infrared fluorescent dye (IR-780) and methionine were conjugated through a piperazin–polyamines linker to ...
