Medical usage of S-adenyhomotype cysteine

Abstract

A medical application of S-adenosine homocysteine in preparing immunodepressant with high effect and low poison is disclosed.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the process of amino acid metabolism in organisms, S-adenosylmethionine transfers methyl groups to other substances under the action of methyltransferase, and participates in the production of a variety of important biologically active substances containing methyl groups such as proteins and lipids. And nucleic acid. More specifically, S-adenosylmethionine in the body is converted into S-adenosyl homocysteine ​​(S-(5'-Adenosyl)-L-homocysteine, AdoHcy) after it provides a methyl group through the above reaction, and S -Adenosine homocysteine ​​is a powerful inhibitor of S-adenosylmethionine-dependent transmethylation reaction. Background technique [0002] In the biological amino acid metabolism process, S-adenosylmethionine transfers methyl groups to other substances under the action of methyltransferase, and participates in the production of a variety of important biologically active substances containing methyl groups such as prot...
