Metabolite Identification
Common NameGamma-Glutamyl-Se-methylselenocysteine
DescriptionGamma-Gamma-gamma-glutamyl-se-methylselenocysteine, also known as gamma-gamma-glutamyl-se-methylselenocysteine or GGMSC CPD, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as dipeptides. These are organic compounds containing a sequence of exactly two alpha-amino acids joined by a peptide bond. Gamma-Gamma-gamma-glutamyl-se-methylselenocysteine is possibly soluble (in water) and a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa). Gamma-Gamma-gamma-glutamyl-se-methylselenocysteine exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. Gamma-Gamma-gamma-glutamyl-se-methylselenocysteine can be biosynthesized from se-methylselenocysteine; which is catalyzed by the enzyme Gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase 1. In cattle, Gamma-gamma-glutamyl-se-methylselenocysteine is involved in the metabolic pathway called the selenoamino acid metabolism pathway.
