Cysteine biosynthesis is a vital biochemical process that converts inorganic sulphur into organic forms, ultimately producing the sulphur‐containing amino acid cysteine. This amino acid is essential ...

Scientists have uncovered a startling metabolic twist: mice engineered to lack the amino acid cysteine, and fed a cysteine-free diet, shed nearly a third of their body weight in just a week. The ...

Scientists have identified a mirror-image form of the amino acid cysteine that selectively slows the growth of certain ...

This connection between cell metabolism and gene activity helps explain how heart cells grow, age, and sometimes get sick. The research was led by Professor Gergana Dobreva at the Mannheim Medical ...
