Metabolite Identification

Common Name

Methylcysteine

Description

Methylcysteine is one of the identified number of bioactive substances in garlic that are water soluble (PMID 16484549 ). It has been suggested that the use of these organosulfur agents derived from garlic could protect partially oxidized and glycated LDL or plasma against further oxidative and glycative deterioration, which might benefit patients with diabetic-related vascular diseases (PMID 15161248 ). It may also exert some chemopreventive effects on chemical carcinogenesis. However, it should be borne in mind that may also demonstrate promotion potential, depending on the organ examined (PMID 9591199 ). Methylcystein is a biomarker for the consumption of dried and cooked beans.

Enzymes

Enzyme Details

1. Methylated-DNA--protein-cysteine methyltransferase

General function:: Involved in methylated-DNA-[protein]-cysteine S-methyltransferase activity
Specific function:: Involved in the cellular defense against the biological effects of O6-methylguanine (O6-MeG) in DNA. Repairs alkylated guanine in DNA by stoichiometrically transferring the alkyl group at the O-6 position to a cysteine residue in the enzyme. This is a suicide reaction:the enzyme is irreversibly inactivated
Gene Name:: MGMT
