General description

α-Keto-γ-methylthiobutyric acid (KMTB) is a keto derivative of L-methionine that shows considerable potential as a substitute for L-methionine. The sodium salt of KMTB can be employed in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Additionally, it acts as a building block for the synthesis of amino acids, peptides, and other complex organic compounds.

Application


  • Measuring antioxidant capacity using the ORAC and TOSC assays.: This study details the use of α-Keto-γ-(methylthio)butyric acid sodium salt in assessing antioxidant capacity through ORAC and TOSC assays, emphasizing its utility in metabolic and chemical synthesis research (Garrett AR et al., 2010).

D-Methionine was converted to L-methionine in a reaction system where four enzymes were used. D-amino acid oxidase (D-AAO) from Arthrobacter protophormiae was used for the complete conversion of D-methionine to 2-oxo-4-methylthiobutyric acid. Catalase was added to prevent 2-oxo-4-methylthiobutyric acid decarboxylation.

4-Methylthio-2-oxobutanoic acid (MTOB) is the final compound of the methionine salvage pathway that converts the polyamine byproduct methylthioadenosine to adenine and methionine. Here we find that MTOB inhibits growth of several human cell lines in a dose-dependent manner. Growth inhibition

The present study investigated the proposed involvement of contaminant-stimulated reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in disease processes in fish. NAD(P)H-dependent ROS production of subcellular fractions was determined by the iron/EDTA-mediated oxidation of 2-keto-4-methiolbutyric acid. Hepatic cytosolic NADPH-dependent and microsomal NAD(P)H-dependent

Methylthioadenosine is formed during the biosynthesis of spermidine and of spermine and is metabolized by methylthioadenosine phosphorylase, an enzyme missing in several tumor cell lines. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, this enzyme is coded by the MEU1 gene. We have now studied

The CtBP transcriptional corepressors promote cancer cell survival and migration/invasion. CtBP senses cellular metabolism via a regulatory dehydrogenase domain, and is antagonized by p14/p19(ARF) tumor suppressors. The CtBP dehydrogenase substrate 4-methylthio-2-oxobutyric acid (MTOB) can act as a CtBP inhibitor at
