Metabolite Identification
Common NameL-Methionine
DescriptionL-Methionine, also known as liquimeth or pedameth, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as methionine and derivatives. Methionine and derivatives are compounds containing methionine or a derivative thereof resulting from reaction of methionine at the amino group or the carboxy group, or from the replacement of any hydrogen of glycine by a heteroatom. L-Methionine is a drug which is used for protein synthesis including the formation of same, l-homocysteine, l-cysteine, taurine, and sulfate. L-Methionine exists as a solid, possibly soluble (in water), and a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa) molecule. L-Methionine exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. L-Methionine is a potentially toxic compound.
