By feeding the mice a diet low in methionine, an essential amino acid that we get from meat, eggs, and some nuts, a team led by Jason Locasale of Duke University found that anticancer drugs like 5 ...
The first convincing evidence that the amino acid methionine plays a role in catalysis in an enzyme has been uncovered by researchers from the University of Bristol. Previously, it was thought that ...
N-acetyl-DL-methionine (0.382 g) was suspended in 2 mL of D 2 O along with 0.112 g of KH 2 PO 4. Sodium Hydroxide (2 M solution in D 2 O) was added carefully to bring the pH to 7 using pH paper.
Research reveals the mechanisms whereby methionine-deficient and methionine-supplemented diets can alter gene expression and damage liver cells.
A diet rich in methionine, an amino acid typically found in red meats, fish, beans, eggs, garlic, lentils, onions, yogurt and seeds, can possibly increase the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease ...
Dr. Alachkar and her colleagues’ research was spurred by older studies, dating back to the 1960s, which intuited the role played by an overload of methionine in the development of the disorder.
