| Targets |
D-Methionine sulfoxide targets methionine sulfoxide reductases (Msrs), enzymes that catalyze the reduction of methionine sulfoxide back to methionine. It is a substrate for these enzymes and is used to study cellular redox homeostasis. Its "target" is the methionine sulfoxide reductase system and oxidative stress pathways.

| ln Vitro |
One of the most restrictive amino acids in poultry diets is methionine[1].
In vitro, D-Methionine sulfoxide is used to study oxidative stress and methionine reductase activity. It serves as a stereochemical standard for protein oxidation studies. Its activity is measured by its reduction by methionine sulfoxide reductases, which can be monitored by chromatographic or enzymatic assays. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, D-Methionine sulfoxide is studied in the context of oxidative stress and antioxidant defense. Methionine oxidation and reduction are important for cellular redox homeostasis. It is used to investigate the role of methionine sulfoxide reductases in protecting cells from oxidative damage.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme assays with D-Methionine sulfoxide typically involve studying methionine sulfoxide reductase (Msr) activity. The compound is used as a substrate, and the reduction to methionine is measured. Standard assays involve incubating D-methionine sulfoxide with enzyme preparations in the presence of reducing equivalents (e.g., dithiothreitol or thioredoxin), and measuring methionine production by HPLC or mass spectrometry.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cell culture experiments with D-Methionine sulfoxide involve treating cells with the compound to induce oxidative stress or to study methionine sulfoxide reductase activity. Cells are treated with various concentrations, and endpoints include assessment of cell viability, oxidative stress markers, and methionine sulfoxide reductase activity. These experiments characterize the cellular response to oxidative stress.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal experiments with D-Methionine sulfoxide are not commonly performed as the compound is a research chemical. If used, it would be to study the effects of oxidative stress on methionine metabolism or to investigate the role of methionine sulfoxide reductases in disease models. Its primary significance is in research as a tool for studying oxidative stress and protein oxidation.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
