Chemical Information
FooDB NameS-N-Methylcysteine
DescriptionS-n-methylcysteine, also known as (2r)-2-amino-3-(methylsulfanyl)propanoic acid or 3-(methylthio)-L-alanine, is a member of the class of compounds known as L-cysteine-s-conjugates. L-cysteine-s-conjugates are compounds containing L-cysteine where the thio-group is conjugated. S-n-methylcysteine is soluble (in water) and a moderately acidic compound (based on its pKa). S-n-methylcysteine can be found in soft-necked garlic, which makes S-n-methylcysteine a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product. S-n-methylcysteine can be found primarily in blood and urine.
