Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of biosensors, and relates to the construction and application of an L-cysteine biosensor. Background technique
[0002] L-cysteine is an important sulfur-containing amino acid, which is widely used in food, medicine and cosmetic industries. Because it contains a highly reducing sulfhydryl group, L-cysteine can be used as a natural reducing agent to break disulfide bonds in proteins. For example, the expectorant liquid with its derivative acetyl L-cysteine as the main component can break the disulfide bond in the sputum to reduce the viscosity of sputum; another example, the perm liquid with L-cysteine as the main component can Break the disulfide bond in hair, so it is widely used in the hairdressing industry; another example, L-cysteine and its derivative glutathione can break the disulfide bond in tyrosinase to inactivate it, It can reduce the melanin produced by tyrosinase, so it is used in...
