Methionine Nutrition and Metabolism: Insights from Animal Studies to Inform Human Nutrition.
Methionine is a nutritionally indispensable amino acid, and is unique among indispensable amino acids due to its sulfur atom. Methionine is involved in cysteine synthesis via the transsulfuration pathway, which is rate limiting for the key antioxidant ...

Methionine metabolism, functions, and application in swine
Methionine (Met) is the only sulfur-containing essential amino acid for animals and is the second or third limiting amino acid in swine diets. It plays a role not only in protein synthesis, but also as an important methyl donor to participate in various ...

Imaging Active Infection in vivo Using D-Amino Acid Derived PET Radiotracers. [PDF]
Occult bacterial infections represent a worldwide health problem. Differentiating active bacterial infection from sterile inflammation can be difficult using current imaging tools. Present clinically viable methodologies either detect morphologic changes

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 129 variant of human prion protein oligomerizes more rapidly than the valine 129 variant - Implications for disease susceptibility to Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease [PDF]
The human PrP gene (PRNP) has two common alleles that encode either methionine or valine at codon 129. This polymorphism modulates disease susceptibility and phenotype of human transmissible spongiform encyphalopathies, but the molecular mechanism by ...
